Evans_18 4 Report post Posted October 28, 2010 What about when Ozzie got pushed into the net when he had the puck and it was called a goal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nhurdi 42 Report post Posted October 28, 2010 Nothing I can say that hasn't already been said about the goal. Just curious though, does Toronto review every goal or only the questionable ones? Also do they have the power to call and overturn a ref? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also do they have the power to call and overturn a ref? That should have been a questionable goal in any case, as it usually goes to review any time the goalie is even remotely touched.

DatsyukianDekes 2,428 Report post Posted October 29, 2010 DREGER: EXAMINING THE POSSIBILITIES OF A 'COACH'S CHALLENGE' Florida Panthers GM Dale Tallon says he is considering proposing a coach's challenge rule at the November GMs meeting in the wake of Colton Orr's controversial winning goal Tuesday night. Tallon would have the support of at least 14 NHL coaches who voted in favour of introducing such a new rule in a TSN poll conducted on Wednesday. Tallon says he is frustrated following the blown call in which Orr turned what appeared to be a textbook goaltender interference penalty into the second goal in Toronto's 3-1 win over the Panthers. It was a call referees Stephen Walkom and Francis Charron would love to have back and one Tallon cited as a prime example of why coaches should have the right to challenge plays, but only those that result in goals or disallowed goals. 14 coaches who were asked, "Would you support a coaches challenge for certain plays, like goalie interference?" said it's time that a coach's challenge is introduced, but not without significant limits. One coach who voted in favour says it would have to be limited to perhaps one challenge per team and would have to include a deterrent, such as a forfeiture of a timeout, or a two minute penalty if the team loses the challenge. Seven coaches voted against introducing a coach's challenge rule, saying they would prefer to leave the game and element of human error as is. A coach who voted "no" bluntly called for better officiating, while another "no" voter predicts teams would manipulate the situation, perhaps faking an injury to buy time to check video before issuing challenges. NHL Director of Hockey Operations Colin Campbell says the league would consider such a proposal if it's properly submitted as an agenda item and open for full discussion. But Campbell points out that, as intriguing as it may be for NHL coaches to consider additional video review, it's something GMs have shunned in the past because of the limitless ways video review could be used. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=338926 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest scottj Report post Posted October 29, 2010 I love it when people say "OH BUT I WANT HUMAN ERROR!" human error is fine when it comes to the players, but if games/stanley cups are awarded based on blown calls then there's a problem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nev 1,085 Report post Posted October 29, 2010 Thing is, as has been repeatedly shown, going to a video replay doesn't exclude the monumental possibility of still giving the wrong call. cf May's disallowed goal vs Dallas, Hossa's disallowed goal v Anaheim + Ott's shootout winner in Dallas. And countless disallowed Holmstron goals. And all 3 times the NHL/refs came out with excuses that were somewhere between bulls*** and lies. So what good would a coaches challenge do?

Guest scottj Report post Posted October 29, 2010 it would just allow that many more better calls on the plays that refs don't spout bulls*** about... would the amount of time/possible side effects of stopping the game be worth it? that's up to the league. I would appreciate it. But would the general population? (think about the average intelligence of the general population) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
