  1. This play reminds me of playing tag in elementary school and successfully tagging another kid but to be told my tag doesn't count because they were crossing their fingers.

  2. May very well be offside but it’s not conclusive from those angles. Would be nice if the nhl had some consistency

  3. How was that offside? Don't you have to have control of the puck? It looked like Rodrigues and the silly dude in Black were fighting over the puck.

  4. Where is the video proof that it was offsides? You can't tell anything from that.

  5. I don't know what all these commenters are missing, but that's a pretty darn clear offside call. The skaters trailing skate beats the puck over the blueline by at least a couple of inches.

  6. Omg these Refs ruin every frigging game. What they just did to Boston is even worse. What a frigging joke.

  7. Don't like either team… even with the leg blocking some of the puck vision there is no way to have the puck be where it is when the Avs players skates are in the zone and pretend he had control of it. He loses control when you see it between the gap in the skate blade a good 2 feet from the blue line. It looks closer than it is because the puck is slowing down from some snow build up.

  8. You can clearly see the moment that puck crosses the line at 3:09, his skate is well ahead of the puck. They got this one right

  9. I mean if the goal last year against Edmonton in game 1 counted, this should count too.

  10. 1:56 you have to pause frame by frame but just behind the krakens skate you can see the puck is just barely and I mean BARELY touching the blue line after E-Rods skate passed the blue. I'm a huge homer with thick homer goggles but that was indeed offsides

  11. I'm cheering against Colorado this series but REMOVE THESE CHALLENGES. If it's not a mayor enough infraction that the refs sees it in real time then it's not impactful enough that it should disallow a goal.

  12. I seriously don’t see the debate here it’s clear as day offsides the Avs player was across the blue line before the puck, that’s offsides he had no control while crossing the puck trailed right behind him lol

  13. the commentators and everyone in the comments are debating if e rod was offside, look a soucy he was off by a mile. Right call good job

  14. Wes’ voice is so distinctive, and you KNOW he’s going to be impartial and fair in the game. There’s some others I could name (won’t) that are less trustworthy, but Wes MacCauley is not in that list.

  15. Such a dumb application of the offside rule but it's absolutely the correct call.

  16. Wow!!! These refs want Seattle to win so bad! I seriously wonder how much they are getting paid!! They are so clearly in favor of Seattle and it’s not even close!

  17. I agree it was offsides but this is really not in the spirit of the rule. Matt Duchene continues to screw the Avs.
