Oilers lost to Nashville 5-4, where the GWG was offside yet after 7 minutes of reviewing it they got the call wrong and said it was onside:

Why even bother having the Coach's Challenge if they can't get the loving call right?

That looks onside to me. The blue line moves with the puck, so since the player was in the air before the puck was fully across the blue line and into the zone he wasn't in the zone offside.

Def not offsides. The player even re lands on the ice on the blue line.

Either way, coach's challenge is still either terrible or not done right.

COACH TOTORO SAY REFEREE CAN BANISH WHISTLE TO LAND OF WIND AND GHOSTS!
Sbisa apparently does not have the mumps, just some sort of other mystery illness.

Oh good, that means only Tanev, Stecher, Hutton and Tryamkin are out with the mumps. I'm going to have to go dig out my equipment, the way this is going I could be on the Canucks' first pairing by Wednesday.

I would genuinely take Sbisa over Biega, Gudbranson or Larson at this point because while those three are ungodly bad, Sbisa has improved to being just pretty bad.

No, Sbisa did have the mumps but his possession stats are so bad he immediately turned it over to the training staff.

So at least Hextall is saying the flyers aren't buying at the deadline, and I'm guessing at this point he's trying to find anyone he can to buy the dying contracts. Christ almighty, i don't even buy us beating poo poo rear end colorado tomorrow night at this point. What a weird loving season it's been.

Also hey Hakstol, stop starting Neuvirth so loving much. This isn't college.

He really does remind me Mike Johnston, complete with the same dumb clueless look whenever they pan in on him on the bench. You even have the same thing going on with a star center struggling like they never have before.

Wouldn't surprise me one iota if Giroux rebounds the minute they get a non poo poo coach.

e: Apparently the Rangers have gotten a lot of calls on J.T Miller but don't want to move him. Not sure why teams would be calling about the Ranger's leading scorer.

To a certain point I can buy the flyers just being astoundingly unlucky/snakebitten on offense, since they do seem to control play well at times, and largely just seem to not be getting finishing touches, but holy hell.

I doubt Hextall dumps Hak this year or in the offseason, but I wouldn't be surprised to see some of the bench staff changed and Hak on a pretty short leash next year. This is still ultimately a write-off season anyway since all Hexy still really cares about is getting rid of Homer's bad contracts and bringing up more of the prospects, but man it's been painful to watch at times.

As an outside observer Hakstol and Johnston seem similar as coaches except Johnston looks like a dad who is unhappy with his marriage and family life, while Hakstol just looks like a serial killer.

When I was 15 I saw a kid in my league smash his stick over the head of one of my teammates. Like full baseball swing.

I don't think any charges were pressed over that but the kid who got hits' Dad was a former NHL enforcer and I remember watching him standing near the glass just staring daggers at the kid who did it.
