Phil Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 What is it? For me, offside is eliminated. Completely. No more talk of a vertical plane. No more game-delaying reviews. No more mindless chatter about "did he enter the zone backwards but with control of the puck?" No more bullshit. Just kill it. The NHL wants more goals, anyway. This would grant that.
Drew a Penalty Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Get rid of the penalty for hand pass on a faceoff. I think it's a stupid new addition.
ThirtyONE Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 "Intent to blow." You play between the whistles. Period. I don't care if the ref wanted to blow the whistle or not, if the puck goes in before the whistle, it counts. Not sure why you take away goals for such a fucking stupid reason.

Might not get rid of it, but would essentially say it's only reviewable if scoring team retains possession completely between entering the zone and the goal being scored.Also make it that line extend up above the ice; make it so it has to be really, really hard to overturn a goal.No matter it has to be changed because it's out of hand.
Phil Posted May 30, 2017 Author Posted May 30, 2017 More rules isn't the answer. It just adds to the confusion the sport already suffers from. Shit like this is why my dad won't watch. I have to explain to him for several minutes why something as simple as offside should be is or isn't the case. Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk
Vodka Drunkenski Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 Lagreca brought up a good point today, make the review only 1 minute and if the call stands, the team challenging gets a 2 minute penalty #MakeBSBHGreatAgain
Costa Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 Instigator rule, go bye bye. Let the players police themselves. Trust me it'll put more asses in the seats, Gary
Phil Posted May 31, 2017 Author Posted May 31, 2017 Lagreca brought up a good point today, make the review only 1 minute and if the call stands, the team challenging gets a 2 minute penalty #MakeBSBHGreatAgain See above. This is convoluted. It's qualifiers on top of qualifiers on top of qualifiers. This shit is confusing and unnecessary. Just. Get. Rid. Of. It. What good is offside giving the game? It's literally designed to throttle goal-scoring, the thing the NHL wants to increase.

It. What good is offside giving the game? It's literally designed to throttle goal-scoring, the thing the NHL wants to increase. Because it forces all players to come back and play defense. It would be boring just watching one guy hang out at the other end of the ice all game. As for eliminating something, I would eliminate the shootout and go with 3 on 3 overtime for 10 minutes.
Mike Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 I'd stop watching hockey if they removed offside. Awful idea and would ruin the game.
Shane Falco Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 I'd make head shots automatic suspensions. Idgaf if the player ends up injured or not. You target the head you gone son. First offense two games. Every offense after adds another automatically if not worse. NHL player safety is a joke.
Albatrosss Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 why does the blue line have to be so thick? make it thinner and u'd have less problems with offsides
Valriera Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 Remove the coach's challenge on offside. IDGAF if the linesman misses a call for offside. That is not an easy call to make correctly 100% of the time and I'm OK with this. Rarely, if ever, is offside the sole reason a goal occurs. Limit the coach's challenge to interference on the goaltender.

Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 Remove the "stick above crossbar" rule. Mostly because we would possibly still play hockey if that wasnt a rule, but I have never understood that rule anyway. Touch the puck whereever you want, but if u touch a player with your stick up high its a penalty. If you just tip the puck I dont see the problem. Dont give a fuck if it is hard for the goalies, bad for them. The league wants more goals anyway, so start by taking away stupid rules that disallow goals. Including the goalie challenge for offside, intent to blow and so on.

I wish that rule applied in my house.
Blue Heaven Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 Minor tweak of the offside rule. If a players skate is up off the ice but is on the line, make it onside. Im all for getting rid of the offside review. Most times its friggin an inch or 2 that a guy is offside and has no bearing on the play. Or, a coach cant challenge an offside play if the team eventually gets control of the puck.
Valriera Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 I would be curious to see an analysis of the number of overturned goals on more or less inconsequential offsides calls. The one against Forsberg the other night, for example, is one I would deem inconsequential, because it had zero impact on the play once the team entered the zone.
