Do I need to remind you on how the oilers exited the 2017 playoffs? Bieksa I think it was, was laying ontop of talbot, clearly goaltender interference and the goal was still allowed. I know damn well how the flames are feeling right now.
Flames are 1-5 in their lifetime in the BoA during the playoffs. They are 0-9 when down 1-3 in a series.
Oilers are 14-1 when leading 3-1 in a series.
All signs pointing towards flames losing this series mate, hence the "flames woudlnt of won anyways" comment
Distinct kicking motion from 3 different angles. Coleman after the game said he thought he was allowed to do that...admitting to assisting the puck in the net with a foot.. if it was already on its way in why be greedy and put a foot to it? Flames need to be asking him that lol.
I think we have different definition of this.
Distinct kicking motion is when the player literally kicks the puck, like soccer to score a goal.
You're allowed to guide the puck into the net with your skates, this has always been allowed. It's literally stated in the rules. So yes, that's why these professional players think it was okay to assist the puck into the net with their skates. Was he stupid as fuck to stick his leg out and guide the puck into the net when it was already going in? Fuck ya. He shoulda known better this is the NHL with questionable rules, refs, etc. shouldn't have taken the chance, but he did and it backfired and that's on him.
It would've been a lot different if the ref on ice called it NO GOAL, and they reviewed it and stood by his call. But it's just as rare as the league going oh actually fuck his decision on ice, it's a good goal! lol That's why it was rather surprising to me that they overturned the ref's call and said it was disallowed, especially when it was going in the net anyway.
This is pretty similar, and ref on ice called it good, they reviewed it and also called it good. This one is far more arguable that it is a "distinctive" kicking motion than coleman's imo, although both to me aren't distinctive kicking as niether of them wind their feet back to kick and project it into the net ftg. They just angled it so that the puck is guided into the net.
