I agree there needs to be a time limit, but I think 20 seconds is too short. An average shift is about 45 seconds, that seems reasonable.

Fuck it.  If its a missed call its a missed call.  This is just bad for hockey.  If it does NOT directly lead to a scoring chance right away, leave it alone.
how many missed penalty calls or non calls go by?  this just slows down the game and detracts from the excitement.  lose this offsides rule.
Why not review icing - they miss that shit ALL the time and it does/can lead directly to a scoring chance off the faceoff.  they don't review those.  Same difference.


Hate, hate, hate, hate this every time I see it no matter who is playing.  They want the game to be faster and more exciting, yet they have this silly offsides review.

the joke used to be....What's red, white and blue and plays golf in April?
but since the season is a tad longer....and we DID manage to win one series....we change that to May (this year)

* Well shit, it's "Sean" Walker? Never heard of him.  :snicker:

I could’ve sworn the announcers earlier in the series said it was the Ausi kid. That’s what I get for not double checking.

Nathan plays for another team...out west I think..no with the Blues.  He had some goals in the playoffs

waynerivers:
Caps were way too passive in the last half of the 3rd.  They needed to go all out to score and save the season but they laid back in a defensive posture with the expected result.  They scored all of 6 goals in 5 games aside from the empty netter in Game 2.  That will lose 100% of the time.

Need to revamp and get bigger and faster if they expect to be in the top echelon of teams.  This year was really an over-performance from a fairly mediocre team.  Hopefully, the FO isn't taken in.
