      Fun fact about offsides in Football (Soccer):
      If the goalkeeper is the second-last opponent and you are behind him, you will be deemed offside. However, if there are 2 players behind the goalkeeper, you will only be offside if you are ahead of the second-last opponent.

      The weird thing is, everyone's understanding of the offside is correct. What most people got wrong was assuming where Makar had "possession" of the puck. The ruling gave him possession way later than what passes the eye-test and that's why it doesn't make sense without the context of what that "push ahead" of the puck is.

    • @buzzsaw1000
      @buzzsaw1000 2 роки тому +1

      Since when does offsides in hockey have to do with possession (other than bringing a puck in behind you.) It's all about touching the puck (or interfering with a defender) on a delayed offside. Makar doesn't touch the puck until the tag-up is completed. While it's not as exaggerated and probably not on purpose, it's the same as when a player purposely doesn't touch the puck going across the line. (The Bunting example is perfect) I do this exaggerated type in beer league about once a month or so.

    As for The "Kick", you said it at the start of the year when the Kraken got burned by a blatantly-kicked in goal that counted, and it bears repeating again: *if officials can't determine what is or isn't a "distinct kicking motion", then maybe kicked-in goals should just count.* Either that or _no_ goals that bounced off of skates should count - make it all-or-nothing, but I know which end of that spectrum would be _less_ controversial.

      The problem is you don't want people going into the crease swinging around their foot-knives just to try to get a goal. IMO the best solution is to say no goals off of skates that are not on the ice during any part of the motion that resulted in the goal. So you can deflect/kick it in by angling or sliding into the puck but you can't lift your skate to "kick" it in.

      @peterpike 2 роки тому +7

      Yeah, Makar was screened initially and his angle toward the offensive zone shows he didn't see Nichushkin. It wasn't an intentional play, but it didn't violate the rules anyway. Also, I don't think the linesman saw it when it happened either. I suspect on close calls, they default to just saying it's onside (and really, when you look at the play in real-time, it was about 1/10 of a second--3 frames on the normal speed film--where it would have been a delayed offside). They know that if a goal is scored, there's video review, so better to err on the side of allowing a scoring chance than incorrectly terminating one. And since 99% of the time this happens, the puck is just cleared or the goalie makes a save, that's the smart default mode to have on the ice: unless it's clearly offside, assume it's onside and let the video review take care of the rest.

      It honestly doesn't matter if Makar knows the rule or not, because if a player doesn't know the rule, he/she got punished for violating the rule without knowing that. However, the good thing about this rule is like to see whether a goal crosses the line or not. There is no ambiguity. So you know that if a similar situation happens, if those conditions checked out, the same call would be made. As for all of those fan-made changes to the rule, the fans need to be better in order to learn the rule when there is no ambiguity and if there is no ambiguity, there is no way you can improve the rule to make it clearer.

    "distinct kicking motion" is in the rulebook to allow purposeful redirections with your foot and disallow "shooting" with your foot. plus they tend to rule the instep as a kick. I don't think the Calgary example was an egregious example of the kicking rule, but some of the others you looked at were. while it's unfortunate, I also think this example was consistant with the spirit of the rule.

    I'm not sure I agree on the offside call. Full disclosure, I am an Oiler fan, so obviously biased.
    But my argument is he had control. Maybe his stick wasn't touching it at that moment, but he had control.
    Picture this, a player receives a breakout pass at the opposition blueline, he spins around to accept the pass while skating backwards. His skates enter the zone before the puck. While his skates are in the zone, but before the puck crosses, he lifts his stick over the puck and sets it on the other side to stickhandle. By the interpretation of the Makar goal this should be offside. He wasn't touching the puck and therefore did not have control for a moment while his skates were in the zone.
    In my opinion, both instances have the player in control of the puck even though they are not touching it in that exact moment.

      I can find no wording in rule 83 that says the play should be whistled down because Makar has control. 83.1 does account for the scenario you are referring to, but it doesn't account for the situation that actually occurred (someone other than the puck carrier was offside). Basically, for one player skating backwards with the puck, "control" allows their skates to cross before the puck. But if someone else is offside, "control" does not determine when the whistle blows.

    I think that the biggest problem with the non-offside, is that the linesmen are going to the video to see if the Avs player's skates have looped back across the line yet, which they confirmed have not. They then spot a faint half inch of space between Makar's stick and the puck while he's carrying it across the line, and say" "hey I can say that I was right and it's a good goal because we can subjectively rule that since Makar's stick is not actually touching the puck at that particular instant, we can say that he's not in full control of the puck and that he passed it to himself waiting for his teammate to get onside before he touches it again".

I don't think you're going to get this but I'll try once...Makar did have possession of the puck, that's big part of why this was onside. On a delayed offside, the rule says you aren't allowed to try to GAIN possession if the puck is loose, or a defender has it (ie. You cant chase a guy while you're offside, or go running into the corner to pick up a puck you don't have). Neither of those apply to Makar, he had the puck. Next part, your feet still have to stay onside until all offside players have tagged up. So your comment about running around after the puck makes no sense, you'd be offside. Makar's feet were still in the neutral zone. The last part of the rule says if there's a delayed offside and the team HAS THE PUCK it's offside when and if they TOUCH it while their team is still offside. Makar didn't touch the puck or enter the zone until Nichushkin had tagged up. If you still don't get it then read rule 83.3 and read up on what delayed offside is.

    unpopular opinion: makar's goal is a good goal. that rule is a good rule and should not change. you should be allowed to do what he did. there are countless examples of players pushing it in the zone and only touching it once everyone tags up (or at least trying to do so) but its very situational, requires a lot of awareness and most of the time it doesn't lead to a goal because most teams don't have an absolute sieve in net who lets in wrist shots from that far out.

    The offside was nonsense. The implication is that you can just enter the zone offside as long as you sort of "hover hand" the puck until your teammates tag up. On a giveaway + partial breakaway you could realistically enter the zone SEVERAL SECONDS offside. and just do some shoulder fakes or tee up a slapshot while you wait for your teammate to tag up. This is not how it's ever called, nor should it be called this way.
    Also if "possession" of the puck now means having it glued to your stick, does this mean if you skate the puck up the ice in full control but you havent touched it for a few seconds....is checking you interference???

    Steve, part of the way this Rangers’ team breaks out this season has been Shesty stopping the puck and starting the breakout around the boards. It’s a risky tactic, sure, but Shesty is by far the best active stickhandling goalie. He picked the wrong time to do it there (sounds like there was a miscommunication with Lindgren going to the bench) but through the dozens of other times during this game (and every other game) that he does this, it helps the Rangers game a lot.
    Put it like this - Shesty’s made this play hundreds of times over the 2021-22 season, and he’s ended up on Dangits for it only one time before, maybe twice if I’m remembering correctly. He’s not like, say, Lundqvist who never ever ever should leave his net during action. Heck, you had Shesty stopping the puck and sending it as a hat pick earlier in the playoffs (Game 6 at Pitt) bc that’s one of his skills, a skill that’s brought the Rangers to where they are today, with a 1-0 lead in the ECF.
    This is a Dangit bc he completely messed it up, but if you’ve watched him play and the Rangers this season you’d see that him making the play is crucial to how the team plays.

      I believe a goal should only count after it hits a players skate if the players skate is not moving. If you are standing still (or reasonably stationary) and the puck bounces off of you, then the goal should count. I never liked the "distinct kicking motion" rule because to me, it is too vague but ironically also too specific at the same time. Determining "distinct" vs "kicking motion" is the same thing when you breakdown the definitions of those two terms. For example, does a "non-distinct" kicking motion exist? How about a distinct "non-kicking motion"? That doesn't make any sense. If I was King, "a moving skate cannot cause a goal" would be the rule I would implement. That seems to be the most realistic solution.

    Tim's explanation at the end is objectively wrong (of course, Sportsnet has failed to do a proper deep-dive into this with someone who actually knows what they are talking about). I believe the call was correct, but not for those reasons. First off, the offside rule (83) doesn't actually explain when the play should be whistled down except in the section of delayed off-side, so we definitely have to look at 83.3 to determine how it should be called. 83.3 is NOT only for situations in which the defending team has the puck, but also for this situation (by its wording "...or, the attacking players are in the process of clearing the attacking zone"). Because of this, the play could arguably be whistled down since Makar was attempting to gain possession of a loose puck. But this is tricky, because the rulebook glossary makes a distinction between "possession" and "control of puck," and does not define "loose puck" at all. "Possession," believe it or not, is granted to the last player to touch the puck, regardless of control or any other circumstance. This means that Makar has possession, and retains possession throughout the play...which is probably why the league could not say he was attempting to gain possession. Even if the rule were interpreted the other way, Bunting's play is not a good example because he appears to intentionally lift his stick (i.e. he is not attempting to gain possession or control or whatever).
    If I were in charge, I would make the following changes:
    - Clarify all wording in 83.3
    - Clarify "possession" and "control of puck" in a way that makes sense by normal language (they are currently insane, and actually contradict each other)
    - Add a definition of "loose puck" if needed to clarify new definitions of above
    - Explain when the whistle should be blown in every section of rule 83

So for me it makes no sense why someone having possession of a puck can get away with it being offside by retouching the puck after your teammate leaves the zone.

    The "distinct kicking motion" rule has always been absurdly vague but also somehow way too specific. Just make the rule that the puck cant go in after it hits your skate unless your skate is not moving. You must be standing still and if it happens to bounce off of you then it is a goal but you cant be moving while that happens. That seems to be the only realistic rule change that can prevent these ridiculous controversies where the rules seem to change every other day.

    Even with that little segment with Tim & Friends explaining 83.3 part2, it still holds an immense margin for interpretation. Tim & Friends seem to think he didn't attempt to posses the puck/did not posses the puck. What I see is Makar going towards the puck which == attempted possession of said puck. Then he states the rule is written for players already offside moving towards the puck, THE RULE SAYS ANY ATTACKING PLAYER, which again.. maybe it was written for just the player who is already offside heading back to the blue line, BUT THAT's LITERALLY NOT WHAT THE RULE SAYS.
    I've been a fan of Hockey for the majority of my lifetime, played the sport, played the games, watched it etc. And it bothers me that this is so damn complex with so much room for interpretation. This has to change. Its fine to have all these intricate cases, but at least have a rule that clearly states what is happening and make it obvious please. This is getting out of hand with what a kicking motion "should" be and what "attempting possession" should be and what "actual possession" is..
    And for anyone stating he does not have possession, you are opening up an entirely new conversation about what deking is, because if I go from forehand to backhand or vice versa, there can easily be a moment there where I do not have possession of the puck, and that is wrong as hell.

    • @pyRoy6
      @pyRoy6 2 роки тому +3

      You are correct to point out that Tim is wrong...and spectacularly wrong because he mocks people for thinking he's wrong. Granted, I think the call was correct, but Tim is wrong about what the rulebook says. Tim is absolutely wrong that 83.3 is written only for situations in which the defending team has the puck. It is also for any situation in which attacking players are trying to clear the zone (like this situation). The key to the call, from what I can tell, is that the glossary defines "possession" as being the last player to touch the puck (regardless of anything else), therefore Makar cannot be "attempting to gain possession." It's also worth noting that 83.3 is the only section that can explain when an offside is whistled down.

      The rule also say, "during the DURATION OF THE DELAYED ONSIDE", which was all of 0.1 seconds.

Because when you look at it frame for frame for that 0.1 seconds, Makar doesn't change trajectory or move his stick at all during that literal blink of an eye.

  • @thehoneycamper2634
    @thehoneycamper2634 2 роки тому +4

    It is still offsides and a Delayed Offsides play unlike the guy at the end of the video states because under rule 83.3 it defines a delayed offsides as "A situation where an attacking player (or players) has preceded the puck across the attacking blue line, but the defending team is in a position to bring the puck back out of its defending zone without any delay or contact with an attacking player, or, the attacking players are in the process of clearing the attacking zone." The key to knowing why it is still delayed offsides here and this is offsides is because of the last line there. "attacking players are in the process of clearing the attacking zone." which he even says Nichuskin is doing. The NHL has no "Tag Up" rule except for under 83.3. Thus, it is a B.S. explanation to justify an incorrect call and 83.3's rule is still in effect here.

    At the moment both that and goalie interference seem to be the most contentious rules as they're far too open to interpretation. So they often end up being called based on how the officials "feel" at the time, rather than a hard "this is okay, but this isn't okay" rule that they need.
