Nope. Not even review-able. So much for "getting it right"

sounds like you want penalties to be review-able

Is that Puerto Rican Thanksgiving?
- YuenglingJagr

It's what they're saying down there. They believe everyone will have power in two months. I think they'll be giving thanks if it's true.

take a look at a picture of beijing that's how bad the smoke was here you couldn't see 5-10 miles ahead
- 2Real

We had bad smoke a lot of the summer here too, first from the fires in Canada and then later fires in WA and OR, but those pictures from Santa Rosa incinerated were just awful.

That had a crappy infrastructure to begin with. Now is their opportunity to build a real one from scratch.

lol - nope - but the hypocrisy is thick

That was clearly an infraction that had a direct and immediate impact on the subsequent goal - much moreso than a millimeter discrepancy at the blueline which had no impact on the goal at all.

But, hey, they're getting it right.

I get pretty brown in the summer time and that has nothing to do with why I hate myself.

Sorry guys it's a Monday and I've had a really poopty couple of weeks. I'll keep my semi political posts to myself.

I don't think penalties in and of themselves should be reviewable. However, if they're going to allow for reviews for offsides and such, then teams should be allowed to challenge for penalties that occurred on a sequence that led to a goal (define "sequence" arbitrarily however you'd like).

yeah it is a slippery slope...I wouldn't say "they are getting it right" no matter what they do. You make light of the fact that they missed a call, but if it is reviewable that could've been reversed after seeing it on replay. It could also be like an NFL game where every other play is reviewed.

No matter what, it seems like each league could be doing a better job with it than they currently are.

I'd say that you can do better than this, but I'm actually not sure you can.

So with Martel playing so well and the sound of it Lindblom struggling offensively, is Martel ahead of him for a possible injury call up, or does Read automatically get the call?

Entering the 2013 draft, I knew who Robert Hagg was. He was projected to go in the first round. I actually had no idea who Samuel Morin was. So much focus was put on Darnell Nurse around here. So when Robert Hagg dropped to us, it was a bit of a surprise. Hagg has been lost in the shuffle at time with more sexy names like Provorov, Morin, Sanheim, Gostisbehere and Myers coming through the pipeline.

It's a tough map. Those Last Hope sidearms are ridiculous. As a sniper I have no counter at close range.

Still haven't picked up D2. I did however pick up Shadow of War and Evil Within 2 last week. Both are fantastic.

I like last hope, but autos are ridiculous. Not sure why everyone is crying about mida, autos have waaaaaaaay too much range.
