Not that it would have mattered. nope. Bishop has a rep for diving. If he was not moving, they would have blown the play dead, but until you gain possession, play goes on.

The Bruins are the -135 favorites at Bovada, with the St. Louis Blues (+260), San Jose Sharks (+270) and Carolina Hurricanes (+6000) behind them on the oddsboard.

A Blues defender would have to have control of the puck before the hand pass would be waived off. That never happened. All goals in overtime are reviewable.

How they missed that is beyond me. And they will have to change the reviewable option for overtime to be able to call this one back from head office.

Zephyr Posted May 16, 2019 Share #189 Posted May 16, 2019 The way it is written, only the goal is reviewable, not the play leading up to it. If he batted it into the net, that is reviewable. All (as it now sits) that they can review is Karlsson shooting the puck, if it went over the line and if the goalie was interfered with. If Meier had of high sticked it instead of hand passed it and they missed it, they could not review that either as it was not the actual goal. I am not sure with "all goals being reviewed in OT" where the whole off-side thing is. Calls like this one could certainly fit into a similar category I do have Meier in my hockey pool, so I will take the assist! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prophet Zacharia Posted May 22, 2019 Author Share #198 Posted May 22, 2019 Finally, we have a Final! Blues visit Boston on Monday for game 1. Stupid NHL takes five days off before starting the series. ? Reminds me of 2008 when I bought SCF game 2 tickets at Detroit, before the schedule was released, and was very disappointed they did Sat/Monday instead of Friday/Sunday. Driving home after the game and needing to work the next day was terrible. Although I did meet a nice Ohio State Police Officer early that Monday morning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
