As a casual fan, I found the Sabres goal hilarious and suggest that the rule should be that play should go on during a fight/scrum. It would show how comical the fact that there are two grown men on skates trying to fight without falling over.

[@MurtazaPirani]

Honestly, I've had a "play to the whistle" moment in a real game before where I scored, but then the goalie dug it out of the net and gave it to a player and kept playing, while I was celebrating with a teammate on my goal. See, we don't have a goal horn when we play, so usually the ref just blows their whistle to signal a goal. i got robbed. not to mention they ended up scoring on us while my fellow winger and I were caught on the wrong side of the ice.

[@narniawarrior0924]

Was it a 2v5 situation?

[@stuartblanchard7527]

Similar thing happened at a UMaine game when I was in college. Don’t remember what happened but nearly all the players stopped playing, but no whistle…. Maine player happened to have the puck, went down the ice and scored. As no whistle was blown, it counted. On the other hand, we’ve seen goals pulled back because the play was “dead in the head” of a ref and they forgot they had a whistle, so….

[@macaulaycarefoot8850]

I think that last play could actually be a good precedent to set. There can't be a scrum after every single big hit in a game, it slows down the game after a clean hit. If you start one it isn't a free whistle, the play goes on.

[@CuteShiba]

yea but like 80 percent of the players on the ice were all fighting so i think that should at least be called for something, i do get like maybe 3-5 but like 8 is a bit much to not call

[@zachreligious629]

i saw this take on twitter and want to perpetuate it. a big clean hit shouldn't always end the play, and players should have to change and adapt so they can't do this dumb Scrum thing every time, since the play's still live!

[@moocherman8]

I mean, if you really want to discourage it then make it a penalty. As it stands, if players go after the hitter after a big, clean hit, then it's not really an option for the hitter's team to get involved. Especially in this circumstance. Brannstrom is a tiny man by league standards.

[@Kaptain13Gonzo]

Confession time. I always laugh at wandering goalies and their antics. This week I'm glad there was no camera at my last game.

Dear Steve Dangle! I hope you'll read this sentence. The main problem is that we don't have a analogue for a word 'goaltender' in russian. Our 'вратарь' is more a football (soccer) term 'goalkeeper'. But sentence "if you're a goalkeeper - keep the goal" loses all its pepper. The best word for such words-playing game for russian would be "if you're a netminder - MIND a net". Because our 'вратарь' ('воротчик', as they said) is the closest term to a english (american) 'net saver' or exact 'gate saver'. So, for russian speaking audience "Если ты вратарь - ПОМНИ о ВОРОТАХ" keeps sense and your clever words game. Sincerely yours, Gleb.

Blackhawks Goal: I've despised video review from day one and I don't care if my team gets robbed. The human element of blown calls comprises half the legend of sports prior to the use of video review. If you want to do it right in the 21st Century, you either install 100 hi-def, super-slo-mo cameras in every NHL arena or nothing. If a video review doesn't provide clarity in under a minute, the call on the ice stands and you move on. Even a two minute delay disrupts the flow of the game.

[@colelafee5041]

No because in so situations you need review. "Let's say it's Montreal and Boston or Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, it's in OT it can be any teams but these are extreme examples. Boston comes down and scores or Philadelphia scores, but it was scored but the net coming off, the goalie gets hit or offsides , or all of them happened. This is deciding which team in both games make it to the playoffs because of how close of points they are. If there was no review of this situation or any other situation and the goal was offsides but the ref couldn't review it any initial call was on sides this would make whatever team lost that game so pissed . The reviewing is to make the game as Fair as possible if there was no reviews there would be so many problems. In that situation like I said the team would have not have made it to the playoffs because of the ref not being able to review it. I understand that yes reviewing should not be 10 minutes or even 6 minutes but it's necessary to try to at least get the call right. Sometimes even after this long period of time you might not think the cause right anyways and it might have been a waste of time. The main point is if there was no way to review something an NHL goals could be scored from many different ways and it could be counted as a goal when it definitely should not have been and people would go crazy especially if it was a deciding game if which team made the playoffs. And I don't believe that if in the situation if your team got screwed you would be fine because you would have just been that close to the playoffs but you get denied because you weren't able to review it you can't tell me that wouldn't suck but it's your opinion I guess.

But the striped jerseys were just watching the hockey from the best angle and didn't bother to blow the whistle.

[@insertgenericusernamehere2402]

As a rugby fan first before I was a hockey fan, the video referee decisions used to take 10-15 minutes so the league added a benefit of the doubt rule meaning if the video ref can't determine if anything wrong with the play the points can be given. It's frustrating when they get scored on you but now they're not so frequent due to multiple camera angles and ref's just being genuinely better.

Sorry Steve, you should pay attention more. Scrums in front of the benches like that happen A LOT and never ever result in play being stopped. Its just expected that there is going to be chaos and messiness where the two teams are changing bodies. The linesman, not the ref, was simply trying to give Okposo space to get up, it wasn't really a scrum. For some reason 4 Senators were there though, and you forget to mention that Ottawa has 6 guys on the ice because a 6th skater jumps on even though those 4 plus the one were clearly on the ice. That is a goal 100% of the time.
