Worst officiating call ever? Offsides in Avalanche game

Second worst officiating ever? Goal goes thru side of net, is reviewed, and upheld.

Sadly they really may need to give the coaches challenge flags like football for shit like this since they can't legally review blown calls like this one.

Definitely a joke

The only reason someone wouldn't call that is because they do not want to call it. Their is no way you miss a play like that. Those guys shouldn't be officiating games for a while.

I think it was soo far offside the linesman got confused. Can happen sometimes.

These guys are used to making close calls, when something is like that you are not used to it.

Still inexcusable and the linesman should be fired.

Head referee shouldve had authority to overrule it. There's no reason bad calls should exist just because it wasn't blown dead at the time. Get it right, like they "try" to do in the NFL. They reverse calls all the time and disregard flags without replay if someone makes a mistake

HEad ref could have overruled it, didn't overrule it.. It's a rigged league buddy. Refs take control and call penalties at will

OFcourse SBR think im paranoid because i've been losing, but I haven't bet real money on this league in over a month

100% agree with the challenge flag.. After this call the league says to Nashville "were sorry" lol gotta be kidding me

I think they reviewed it and head ref claimed a Pred player passed it back into his own zone so it wasn't offsides, or some BS.

I think they said it was touched.
Nowhere near the worst call ever.......almost 100 years of bad calls.

I had never considered what would happen if someone passed it into their own zone where someone from the other team was offside. Played hockey for 15 years and it never happened.

There must be a default rule that if you can pummel a one timer through the side of the net that it counts

Those cheap euro nets, never see that in NHL
