  1. Great question. I’m wondering if this was added when the delayed offside was added. Thought I was going crazy. I always thought you had to be on white center ice to clear the zone, not just “tag up.”(something I learned today)
  2. Are you expecting them to miss the playoffs by one point?😂
  3. My point is that it is different for players and puck. The blue line, as it relates to players, is a part of both zones. The blue line, as it relates to the puck, is a part of the zone from which it came. So if you think about it, all of the zones change sizes throughout the game, depending on where the puck is and where it came from. Kinda cool.
  4. Yep. Just read the nhl rule book. They got it wrong. So the puck has to be all the way across the blue line to exit the zone, but a player only has to touch the blue line to exit the zone. Not confusing at all.
  5. On another note, how does a ref justify not giving a penalty to a player on the bench who grabs a player by the head on the ice while play is going on. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised by anything in a league where they get a call correct and put out a note to apologize that they got it wrong.
  6. I’ll say it again, once the puck is in the offensive zone, the blue line is part of the zone. In order to “exit the zone” you have to get out and only be touching white ice in the neutral zone. You have not exited the zone by merely thouching the blue line. IMO they got the call right.
  7. I thought the blue line was always a part of the zone that the puck was in. If so, wouldn’t all the Sabres players have had to touch white ice in the neutral zone in order to clear the offensive zone and get back onside? If the puck hadn’t already crossed the line then they would have been onside by touching the blue line. But the puck was already in. Still don’t care. Hurry back onside you dope!
  8. If at 21, he doesn’t know what offsides is, and that he has to get onside on that play, well, that’s pretty much the definition of dumb.
  9. Honestly, who gives a crap about the rule. It’s a red herring. The fact that Olofsson didn’t touch the puck is just luck. Hey, Dahlin. Get onside you ***** dope!
  10. I thought KA signed Johnny Boychuk to get to the cap floor.
  11. Not to pick nits, but more than 50% of the teams make it (until this year.)
  12. Do you watch any other teams? It certainly isn't as often as it used to be, but I see it all the time, just not in Sabres games.
  13. It wasn't a goal, but I love Zegras' reaction to Milano. He absolutely could not believed he scored that goal.
  14. Yes, I know. We only want good character guys that want to be here.Who cares if they suck and get laughed at by the opponent. Just make sure they take nice pictures with the kiddies. I'll take a$$holes that I don't like who win, anyday. It's not "just a game" (I ***** HATE that phrase). It's professional sports. That is a huge difference.
