Gator Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 The Islanders 4-2 goal was kicked in by every call that has ever gone against us in the past. At least in games I have watched. I can't find a clip of the goal so if someone can find it please post it. That is so blatantly a kick and what's worse is they reviewed it and still said good goal! I'm team tank because I want Jack Hughes but this is a perfect example of why we have to build a super team to get our first cup. We have no shot at winning a cup unless we can beat not only the best teams, but the refs as well. *cough* 2011 finals *cough*. Maybe I'm wrong, but the few replays they showed looked like there was no denying it was a kick. Teams should be allowed to fine refs/Bettman for bad calls happening IMO, maybe thatd stop this nonsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 A "conspiracy theorist" should be defined as someone who'd actually claim to trust(&/or serve as apologist) for a league like this. What country do they operate out of? Is there Anything honest that comes from such a place? The term itself is a convenient "catch all" to simply marginalize those who won't recite/go along with the official narrative. Don't worry..all you're observing is blatant, shameless dishonesty. Just keep buying overpriced ducats & merch, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Biestra Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 It was a little weird how quick the call came down from Toronto. So quick I don't know if they even checked more than one angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuck73_3 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 One angle looked kicked in and one looked like he got his stick on it after the kick, either way not conclusive enough to say good goal imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shekky Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 the second angle you can clearly see his stick was no where near the puck just after he kicked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanlet Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I'm just going to leave this here. The rule is still the same, the NHL brass is still the same, yet the calls go one way against the Canucks and the exact opposite when it would be in the Canucks favor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Crossbar Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I strongly believe it was kicked in as well but that's where I leave it. If I venture into the territory to find justification for external forces at play that produced the kicking motion, as if the intent to kick was telegraphed and then executed at the precise time, due to conspiratorial forces against the Canucks, it's too deep of a rabbit hole. I suppose it was kicked in because of the deep state trying to marginalize how Canadians are perceived on a global level. If the Canucks are scored upon by an American team, Canada isn't so appealing. Therefore reducing the amount of people who want to move to Canada when the election doesn't go their way. The fact that Justin Trudeau has attended NHL games in the past is evidence. Lol ... see! Or it was kicked in and a bad call by the refs. Believe it ... or not!

The league's top brass watched it on the replay, deemed it to be a good goal, and allowed it. This is in complete opposition to how they have called Canucks' kicked in goals in the past in a verifiable pattern. Whether it is the personal bias of those who have been employed in certain positions for decades or an actual systematic bias can only be speculated about, but the track record is clear. The Canucks get treated differently in video reviews than other teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYI's colour commentator explained that you can angle the skate so that it caroms in - just can't have a kicking motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xereau Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Our franchise has a beloved 20 foot cast bronze statue outside our arena, eternally celebrating a moment in time that was based 100% in mocking of the NHL Referee's Union. Think this might have something to do with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
