Amerks lost 5-1 last night
Comrie 4 goals on 28 shots
Weissbach with his 12th goal
Rousek with a assist

Would love to hear from someone who watched the game if those goals he gave up were HD

I agree Krebs deserves to play with more skilled offensive players. He sets up Okposo and Girgs all the time and they can’t finish
- Sabretooth9


Krebs won't diminish on his offensive skill. He's got that part. He needs to become a better defensive forward and more proactive shooter. The former greatly improving.

Guys, you have to let the goalie try to make the save... especially in the crease.. and no Canadian player pushed Blake either

I believe Comrie’s first game with the Amerks he won and was the first star. Don’t know anything about last night…

That's called back in any league.

You cant have both skates in the crease and one leg holding the goalie back (even if its unintentional)

once that got called back and the 4th goal went in the USA just wasnt the same, that call wrong or right was the changing point in that game

6:21 for the first called back goal "now his foot is in the crease but if you have the puck Gord are you allowed to touch the goalie in the crease?" NOPE

8:30 second called back goal they clearly say it should be challenged and a non-goal.

Not sure what TSN feed ya'll were watching

"If an attacking Player initiates 'a relevant contact' with a Goalkeeper, incidental or otherwise, while the Goalkeeper is in their Goal Crease, and a goal is scored, the goal will be disallowed.

If an attacking Player establishes a 'significant position' within the Goal Crease, so as to obstruct the Goalkeeper’s vision and impair their ability to defend their goal, and a goal is scored, the goal will be disallowed. For this purpose, a Player 'establishes a significant position within the crease' when, in the Referee’s judgment, their body, or a substantial portion thereof, is within the Goal Crease for more than an instantaneous period of time."



the key part of this is "For this purpose, a Player 'establishes a significant position within the crease' when, in the Referee’s judgment, their body, or a substantial portion thereof, is within the Goal Crease for more than an instantaneous period of time."

the rule is totally open to interpretation and both times the call on the ice was goal with a ref right there

"I would say I’m pretty frustrated, but I’m not going to comment on it," Pecknold said. "I'm not going to comment on officiating, other than you’ve got 18-, 19-year-old kids in this environment. To have two taken away, that’s a huge part of the game for sure. But I'm not going to comment on the officials. The head officials can deal with that."

"The IIHF rulebook puts an emphasis on players not making contact with goaltenders or being in the crease.

The rules that were applied by the officials to the two disallowed goals fall under Rule 69.3, "Contact Inside the Goal Crease", in the IIHF rulebook. "

Sorry to break it to the 18-19 year olds but rules don't get thrown to the side cause of your age

Maybe don't have your whole body in the crease when making contact with the goalie... or shoving the puck out from under him... both no-no's in any league i've ever watched or played in
