Honestly I dont support throwing drinks and food on the ice since that can hurt someone but at least it shows that they care. As A leafs fan who literally went through some dark times as a child whos team stunk very rarely (till about 2012) would the fans react. IMO food and drink is no good (a full car of beer can seriously hurt someone and even kill them if its thrown hard enough) but i do think its fine to throw Jerseys.

Unless you are a Leafs goaltender, then the refs bail you out like in the 2nd Devils goal that didn't count.

[@davel.3101]

I despise called back goals like that when there was no penalty called. Like, the ref gave no shits until they scored. If it was goalie interference because he was body checked, that's a penalty. If you weren't going to call it, then the goal should stand. It's different if there's incidental contact in the crease. Which, speaking of, there's no way that first goal is called back. The contact has to be enough to prevent the save, and Murrey wasn't even close (plus, I believe it deflected, so he wouldn't have been able to save it without interfering with the devil player).

[@davyt0247]

The video where the Sabers had their 18 game losing streak is up there too, there were like 5 dang it's of not tending the goal

[@akaRobK]

The problem isn't that the goals were called off. The problem is that we have seen all of those exact types plays get called the other way repeatedly over the years. The NHLs calling of each one of these plays the kick included has been incredibly inconsistent. It's hard not to view the calls as 50/50 coin flips. So when the Devils have all 3 calls go against them there's not really any other way to feel but ripped off and cheated.

There was another play where marner got high sticked, went down on the ice and was there for a few seconds, play kept going even though the refs never signaled for a penalty, even the devils announcers said they never saw an arm up, play was blown dead and then a penalty was called

[@crbrearley]

That was a hat pick. Just a good play by a veteren. Leafs might have taken the penalty kill there rather than have another minute in their zone with that exhausted group.

[@crbrearley]

@@crispychris9492 The arm never went up. The linesman made the call on that one apparently. Not going to defend Marner's embellishments. On the other hand, Matthews doesn't embellish and gets comparatively few calls for a guy whose often fouled.

[@wolffyhowl5622]

The thing for me is that in any game, any decision regarding each of the goals would've been relatively okay, 1st could've been counted or waived, 2nd counted or waived, 3rd counted or waived. But it's the fact that ALL THREE happened in one game that is astonishing. Even seeing others comments it's so divided amongst which are right and wrong. If any one of those goals were isolated, I dont think there would be any issue. It's just incredible they all happened together in one game, to end a 13 game win streak

[@reaganharder1480]

Yeah, I'm with you. If there were one I would say should have counted, it's the second one, because like, what is Tatar supposed to do? He's skating behind the net, taking a line to not just plow right through Murray, and Murray just kinda acts like there's no one he should have to worry about avoiding, and by the time Tatar could see that there may be a problem he really doesn't have time to avoid contact. Based on that precedent, you might think goalies are gonna start trying to initiate contact with skaters behind their net after playing the puck because if they make a bad turnover, now they have a freebie because "I was interfered with".

[@Gl-my8fw]

This goalies not tending the net thing is becoming an epidemic

[@hoozoohleague8264]

To be fair, it's the fault of the damn trapezoid behind the nets. Since they added this stupid rule, goalies have become less adept at handling the puck. I loved it when a guy like Brodeur would jump on a puck in the corner and snipe a pass center ice while the other team thought it was an icing call and would be taken by surprise. High risk high reward plays, allows to relaunch the attack quicker on the powerplay when the puck is cleared from the offensive zone.

Yea I thought they were gonna naturally transition out of the "if you're a goaltender" segment to that one since they ended on the avs one. Not a good week for Englund I guess.

[@jrdds]

Not a good week for Englund is an understatement - lacking the situational awareness resulting in trying to get around but running his own goalie leading to a goal and then cross-checking a player into his own goalie for a counted goal. I don't know Avs' D sitch but Englund needs to visit the press box for a game.

[@aidanbaksh8985]

My opinion on the Devils reviews: 1. Pretty clear cut goaltender interference. It's minor contact, but has a major effect on Murray's ability to move freely. No goal. 2. This play is the definition of incidental contact outside the crease. The Devils player doesn't stick his foot out or anything, their legs just make contact because Murray didn't notice the guy coming around the net, who had already committed to going between Murray and the net. Should have been a good goal. 3. No goal, as per the rulebook, but the rule is dumb. I think it should be: if the puck is on target when the puck leaves the kicking skate, no goal. If the puck is not on target when it leaves the kicking skate and is subsequently deflected into the net by anything on the ice, good goal.

[@BoredDan7]

"69.4 Contact Outside the Goal Crease - If an attacking player initiates any contact with a goalkeeper, other than incidental contact, while the goalkeeper is outside his goal crease, and a goal is scored, the goal will be disallowed. A goalkeeper is not “fair game” just because he is outside the goal crease. The appropriate penalty should be assessed in every case where an attacking player makes unnecessary contact with the goalkeeper. However, incidental contact will be permitted when the goalkeeper is in the act of playing the puck outside his goal crease provided the attacking player has made a reasonable effort to avoid such unnecessary contact. When a goalkeeper has played the puck outside of his crease and is then prevented from returning to his crease area due to the deliberate actions of an attacking player, such player may be penalized for goalkeeper interference. Similarly, the goalkeeper may be penalized, if by his actions outside of his crease he deliberately interferes with an attacking player who is attempting to play the puck or an opponent." Tatar chose to cut between Murray and the net. They prevented Murray from returning to their crease. That is not a "reasonable effort" to avoid the contact and it was a "deliberate action" that prevented Murray from returning to his crease.

@@BoredDan7 To add to that 2nd goal, if you look at it closely, you can actually see that Tatar pushes Murray with his left arm. It would have been deemed incidental as he could have tried to avoid him to the best of his capacity, but by deliberately shoving Murray out of play, of course it was going to be no goal. However, I clearly agree on the 3rd goal that if there is kicking motion, but that the initial trajectory of the puck was not the net, it should count as a goal. Steve's video doesn't show the best angle possible for the review, but the puck was going on the complete opposite way of the net, until it hit Leafs' Robertson's skate which directed it into the net. Haula was most likely aiming the puck to his teammate crashing the net, not actually trying to kick the puck inside the net

[@aidanbaksh8985]

@@CharlesABelair I disagree that Tatar pushes him with his arm. When you bump into someone shoulder to shoulder, it's natural for your arm to swing back like that. He *may* have pushed Murray, but there's very plausible deniability and I don't think you can base a call on that. Also if the refs thought he actually pushed him, they would have called a penalty and not just waived off the goal.

[@aidanbaksh8985]

@@BoredDan7 Yes, Tatar chose to cut between Murray and the net, but looking at the play holistically, where else should Tatar have gone? As Tatar starts to go behind the net, he is clearly aware that Murray is there playing the puck. The puck is along the boards, and Murray had his body quite close to the boards as well, certainly close enough that there would be significant contact if a player tried to go between him and the boards. As such, Tatar cuts up ice and takes the inside line to avoid contact with Murray. Unless you were expecting Tatar to come to a full stop behind the net, or cut back to Murray's left on essentially 0 notice, I'm not sure what other reasonable effort he could have made to avoid the contact.

[@BoredDan7]

@@CharlesABelair Whether he intended to kick it in or not and whether he kicked it at the net or across does not matter. If a player kicks the puck and it deflects off another players body and in it's no goal. This is specifically mentioned in the rules. It's only a goal if it deflects off a stick that is not the goalies.

I got one. IF YOURE A REF, CALL A FAIR GAME

[@johnkobs6086]

I like the think Englund was yelling "Tend the GOAL!" as he drilled his own tendy.

[@EXTREMERC416]

The second refused goal should have counted imo its the goalie who made the play and ran into the devils player. If ur a goaltender tend the goal...

[@TheKitKatThe]

he was playing the puck, skating back to his crease, and was hit from behind, did you watch the game?

[@EXTREMERC416]

@@TheKitKatThe i just saw the video of it duh. The player didnt run into him in purpose he picked a line and the goalie crossed it

@@EXTREMERC416 the player didn’t try not to hit him though

[@ShinyMew76]

I saw someone else say this and I agree with it. The goaltenders would be better at playing the puck if they were allowed to. The trapezoid is an unnecessary rule, and needs to be addressed

[@timburke6025]

My buddy was at the Avs v Canes game and people were yelling "If your a goaltender tend the goal" after that happened!

[@cbonez2909]

2 of 3 were 100% goals!!! devils got robbed!!!

[@stephensussmann6443]

Not a devils fan but I def think GM's need to discuss goalie interference seems to need clearer rulings

[@marcmardini6873]

As far as the Devils goals getting called back the third is 100% not a goal. The second one I personally think should have been good but can see why it wasn't. The first one should have been a good goal IMO, what is the Devil's player supposed to do there, Marner is preventing him from leaving the area and pushing him closer, what do you want him to do in that situation

[@Something7348]

Not only that but like he barely touched the goaltender, their skate blades barely touched each other

[@theseanie9958]

1st one was DEFINITELY gi cuz murray couldnt move over to make the save. 2nd one is the only arguable one

[@JoeyMcVety]

recommendation. You should make a end of season best dangits of all season. Same for the hat picks

[@Rockin_Ross]

Perfect set of dang-its! BTW…what sweater are you wearing?

[@richardfewer9348]

Seriously

[@evilmotorsports5076]

For the last two season of beer league I was on last place teams. At least 10x a night I was saying "That's a dang-it" as we would make a bad turnover. Luckily I wouldn't have to say the other line to our goalie, though I have yelled it at opposing goalies from time to time.

[@Scourch_]

Next time my goal tending coach suggests I play the puck more, I'll point to this video and say "Nah, I'm staying in my crease dude."

[@FHL-Devils]

The fact the defense can nullify a LEGAL cross-crease kick pass by putting the puck in their own net is SHAMBOLIC!

[@benbaxter2061]

Honestly the worst part of the Toronto NJ game isn't the biased officiating or the fact that we lost, but the Toronto fans celebrating and trolling as though their team hadn't been trounced all over the ice. Shots were 35-20. Devils had 80% on the deserve-to-win-o-meter. Take the gift with some class.

[@GAdawg2k8]

I saw Frankie and Englund collide and said “dang it,” only to watch the Canes score. I love predicting dang its.

[@edwardernst5450]

First one no DOUBT should of counted!

[@arrangedhippo5]

On the second one Matt Murray was way out of his net should’ve counted and for the third goal it bounced off 4 people before going in

[@jeremeymcdude]

The goalie interference calls might be questionable. there should have been at least one where idk, there's barely any way for that first one called off to be GI because idk, where the hell is the actual interference? The 2nd interference call being a player moving around the net, questionable. Probably correct because the skater should have at least made an attempt to avoid contact. The kick would have been good had it hit off of the NJ Devils player stick. From the view behind the net, you can see it misses the Devils Player's stick.

[@johnharrison7449]

The player was playing the puck, which happened to be right there. If anything that should be interference on the keeper.

[@bruinsguy9625]

The first one def should’ve counted, 2nd one was more debatable but still should’ve counted, third one I agree with, but it doesn’t matter at that point bc that would make it 3-2 nj
