Of course the night we say the refs aren’t any worse the 4 blind mice miss a blatant hand pass for an ot winner.

Wow, that was brutal. Sharks have now gotten 3 complete gift calls in the playoffs. I wanted Carolina, but looks like they're out, so go Sharks!

Sorry Blues, we need someone to be worse than the Rangers 54 years between cups, and you're damn close!

Lucic + 8, EDM retains 2 million, 20 + Georgie

Ultimately I wouldn't do it, but I think the value is actually close enough to strongly consider.
If Zegras or Caufield were available at #8, it would really be a tough decision!
- TommyGTrain

there really isn't any deal where we take back Lucic that's even remotely acceptable

he has a NMC and would need to be protected in expansion draft, it kills everything

they actually gave Meier an assist on that goal

I get what you are saying. If there was this hypothetical deal though and say Edmonton is a lottery team again, it could kickstart a dynasty. That’s not even considering there is a non zero chance there could be another compliance buyout and you could get out of it anyway.

yeah, if there is another compliance buyout period, it's after the expansion draft

the current CBA runs through the 2021-22 season, so lockout possibly in 2022, after Seattle's first season is over

I dont know, zero chance I'm signing off on taking Lucic back in any possible scenario, no goddamn way

I mean this is grossly fantasizing, but if you knew that the 2020 Edmonton pick was #1, you'd still say no?

I agree that in reality this trade never happens, but I can't say that this fake trade is a complete non starter.

I can't see any team in the league taking on that contract. He'll be bought out at the next CBA.

how many game changing calls will the sharks get this playoffs

If they don't win the cup its pretty sad at this point

They said that call wasn'r reviewable? If they can review an offside or goalie interference, why not a hand pass?
I'm sure that will be changed in the off season. Sharks stole one there.

I hope they lose in game 7 with a game changing call going against them. That would crack me up

I didn't even see the goal but reading about it I knew right away that it was not a reviewable play.

I actually hope they don't change the rule. They can't be reviewing every little play, what is this football?

They can only review it if a player uses their hand to score a goal, they can't review a pass.

It's just comical all 4 refs missed it when it was blatant as ever

There were 3 of us watching the game and made the call live. What were the refs watching?
If they insist on reviewing every zone entry, that goal should have been disallowed. I don't want more reviews, but man, that was terrible.

It was the hockey equivalent of when Brett Farve knew the game was over and did some blatantly stupid thing knowing he wouldn't get away with it. Of course they got away with it because it's hockey.

I think maybe we move on to a new team besides Edmonton to speculate NYR trades with? LOL, Oilers are only team?

- jimbro83

Agreed. Can't get better and plan the long term. That is stupid.

oh by the way here's Milan Lucic to raise the speed level a notch
