Redwings are not going to win this series, and it's because they're ******* atrocious

FIFY. And the only way I could be happier about it is if the Wings didn't even make the playoffs in the first place. Taking all kinds of pride in making the playoffs 25 straight years, but this year won't mean that much if the Lightning sweep them out of the playoffs.

That...was not icing. And Keith shouldn't be on the ice. That's a tough one to swallow.

Why shouldn't Keith be on the ice? You certainly can't be referring to him protecting himself against that punk Charlie Coyle.


Coyle slashed Keith in the face, Slew Sticked him and drove his head into the ice. I would agree the officiating was bad the linesman should have caught offside live and the Blues are interfering a lot going uncalled.

Here is the Slashgate video proves Coyle should have been suspended https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=f7hpvlA9YiM

Exactly - Keith should have gotten a much stiffer sentence. Look at similar incidents in the past and the penalties given out. But the NHL loves the Blackhawks...

And for the record, Keith got one more game than anyone in the media thought he was gonna get.

Rule 83 – Off-side
83.1 Off-side - Players of the attacking team must not precede the puck
into the attacking zone.
The position of the player’s skates and not that of his stick shall be the determining factor in all instances in deciding an off-side. A player is off-side when both skates are completely over the leading edge of the blue line involved in the play.
A player is on-side when either of his skates are in contact with, or on his own side of the line, at the instant the puck completely crosses the leading edge of the blue line regardless of the position of his stick. However, a player actually controlling the puck who shall cross the line ahead of the puck shall not be considered “off-side,” provided he had possession and control of the puck prior to his skates crossing the blue line.
It should be noted that while the position of the player’s skates is what determines whether a player is “off-side,” nevertheless the question of an “off-side” never arises until the puck has completely crossed the leading edge of the blue line at which time the decision is to be made.
If a player legally carries or passes the puck back into his own defending zone while a player of the opposing team is in such defending zone, the off-side shall be ignored and play permitted to continue.

I do feel kind of bad for the Blues. They've had some good teams the past few years. The first round seems harder than it used to be.
