zaxx 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2009 The first two goals by maple leafs players sucks. The one blowing snow on Brodeur was overplayed. The snow did not hit until the puck was in the net and therefore had no play in the goal. The player just managed to fake out a goalie who is not good on shootouts, not even in a pretty way. The other one where the maple leaf slid the puck under Tim Thomas's right pad was lame. Thomas should have saved it but he lifted his leg and the player got lucky. There was nothing great about that goal. I did like blakes goal though, very fast and fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rule 30.a The Referee shall ask to have announced over the public address system the name of the player designated by him or selected by the Team entitled to take the shot (as appropriate). He shall then place the puck on the center face-off spot and the player taking the shot will, on the instruction of the Referee, play the puck from there and shall attempt to score on the goalkeeper. The puck must be kept in motion towards the opponent's goal line and once it is shot, the play shall be considered complete. No goal can be scored on a rebound of any kind (an exception being the puck off the goal post, then the goalkeeper and then directly into the goal), and any time the puck crosses the goal line, the shot shall be considered complete. I thought as long as the player still had forward momentum they were a-okay. See above. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No goal can be scored on a rebound of any kind (an exception being the puck off the goal post, then the goalkeeper and then directly into the goal), and any time the puck crosses the goal line, the shot shall be considered complete. See above. 25.2 Procedure - The Referee shall ask to have announced over the public address system the name of the player designated by him or selected by the team entitled to take the shot (as appropriate). He shall then place the puck on the center face-off spot and the player taking the shot will, on the instruction of the Referee (by blowing his whistle), play the puck from there and shall attempt to score on the goalkeeper. The puck must be kept in motion towards the opponent’s goal line and once it is shot, the play shall be considered complete. No goal can be scored on a rebound of any kind (an exception being the puck off the goal post or crossbar, then the goalkeeper and then directly into the goal), and any time the puck crosses the goal line or comes to a complete stop, the shot shall be considered complete. The lacrosse-like move whereby the puck is picked up on the blade of the stick and “whipped†into the net shall be permitted provided the puck is not raised above the height of the shoulders at any time and when released, is not carried higher than the crossbar. See also 80.1. The spin-o-rama type move where the player completes a 360° turn as he approaches the goal, shall be permitted as this involves continuous motion. Only a player designated as a goalkeeper or alternate goalkeeper may defend against the penalty shot. The goalkeeper must remain in his crease until the player taking the penalty shot has touched the puck. If at the time a penalty shot is awarded, the goalkeeper of the penalized team has been removed from the ice to substitute another player, the goalkeeper shall be permitted to return to the ice before the penalty shot is taken. The team against whom the penalty shot has been assessed may replace their goalkeeper to defend against the penalty shot, however, the substitute goalkeeper is required to remain in the game until the next stoppage of play. While the penalty shot is being taken, players of both sides shall withdraw to the sides of the rink and in front of their own player’s bench. __________________________________________________ So in your section of the rules it's the puck that needs to constantly be moving forward but the part I highlighted permits the spin-o-rama move because the player is still in continuous forward motion. So it's still a bit confusing. Either way it says the spin move is permitted so the goal should be, and was, allowed.

NeverForgetMac25 483 Report post Posted July 21, 2009 Either way it says the spin move is permitted so the goal should be, and was, allowed. Interesting. I must've thought all backward motion with the puck was illegal due to sportscasters making comments regarding legality of the Foresberg-move. So in other words, the puck *can't* move backwards *unless* the spin-o-rama move is used, which is considered continued motion. Damn technicalities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems like the rule you posted clearly states the puck has to make constant forward progress, but then what about toe drags and other instances where the puck gets moved back while the player still moves forward? It's confusing at best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drake_Marcus 890 Report post Posted July 21, 2009 IMO they're only as over rated as hip checks...For me I can't get enough of them (hip checks too) - even if it's an opponent. Bah.

It's confusing at best. Well by rule, any move where the puck is forced in a direction away from the blueline (aside from the spin-o-rama) including toe-drags that infract are considered illegal and need to be waved off. Now that being said, I've seen so many gray area moves that are let go simply because its too close to confirm (100%) the puck was brought backwards. TBH, that's one area I wouldn't mind seeing reviewed in case there's a close call. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dat's sick 1,002 Report post Posted July 21, 2009 Ribeiro and Datsyuk's were the only really great ones on that list imo. Parise's move was slick also, that could have been higher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SDavis35 140 Report post Posted July 22, 2009 Curious... should Ribeiro's goal count? It seemed he had lost control of the puck, so I thought that killed the play? (and he touched again after he lost control putting it in) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
