Ok. So explain to this novice why it wasn’t. No whistle. Puck was loose The touching of the goalie (btw allowed if the pucks loose) had no bearing on the puck crossing the line. Like I said. Referee out of position

The puck was under his pad - Ovi jammed the goalie to push the puck in. Can't do that ... that's why the review[s] took about 30sec each.

... and there was an early whistle ... usually trumps everything, but not always - NHL can be a bit ambiguous with some aspects of review, but it's getting better.

Puck was loose. But he had to initiate contact with the goalie to play the puck over the line.

Good stuff. Appears goalie has all the power when pucks loose in the crease.

I have both home teams winning 4-3 tonight ... so San Jose at -115 best bet along with the overs.

What's the reasoning? They've won all three at home, and blew them out last one. Carolina's giving them a fight, but why exactly would Washington "be in trouble"?

K13 is one of the worse hockey predictors on this site. You can find thread after thread every year in the playoffs where he is wrong. He disappears afterwards.

You didn't even answer the question... too difficult to give your reasoning behind a statement?

And props for not acknowledging it until after the fact. Winner!

Didn’t need to give my reason. I’m not writing a thesis. And I called the Boston series and the sharks series. I’ve been around here long enough that if I get something wrong I’ll admit it. But what’s reasoning going to get? You would then criticize it then I would win and you wouldn’t say anything afterwards

What hindsight? I said it before the game and it won. I’ve been around here long enough

They might not have seen your other thread where you made that prediction. Don't think you actually said it here in this one. Or am I confusing this with the Bruins/Sharks prediction???

Yeah I said the Carolina one in here. The sharks and bruins one I think I’ve said just in my thread
