I hear you - it wasn't a really lopsided trade from the 'challenge trade' angle on the surface, but L. Schenn looks like a player who would've really thrived in the pre-lockout NHL. Right now, he seems like a 2nd pairing guy on a good day, and panic-inducing on a bad one.up
Homer rolls the dice plenty, and with surprising efficacy - the Richards/Carter trades both turned out fantastic for Philly IMO, and buying low/fixing Mason looks like a big-time coup. That said, he's nothing if not entertaining.

PSK: "We have the Jets to thank for their obsession with Mark Scheifele. He was pegged to go somewhere 10-15, so him going 7 and the Flyers going with Couturier at 8 was huge for Boston."
You're nothing if not consistent my man.
Mason was a great pickup, but it was only possible (necessary) because they traded away Bob and hitched their wagon to Bryz.PedroSpecialK said:

I'd forgotten about the exchange with RC over the 'similarity' between the Hamilton/Solder picks, that was a fun trip down memory lane.
Also gotta love 19 year-old Dougie's quote here after his second game.
Ok back to reality
If I'm the Flyers, I might pull Mason here. Tired group of Rangers on the ice, faceoff in the Rangers end.
... you can't blow the play dead for icing, then take the draw out to center ice.
That's called "making up rules"

I was referring to the puck getting stuck on the side of the net. I would think that's treated like the goalie covering a puck up.kenneycb said:
Not sure but my guess is they treat that like a puck out of play. NY didn't touch the puck so I can see that though I'm just inferring there.cshea said:
I guess, but if the puck goes of the post and out the draw stays inside.kenneycb said:
I don't know the rule, it's something I haven't really seen before.
Think it's handled like a puck on top of the net: outside the zone. What I question is the overturned icing. If getting together on that isn't mandatory, they shouldn't be doing it arbitrarily. Not as though there was much of a chance to score there anyway. Sort of like Lloyd Christmas' chances of getting with Mary Swanson.
Puck stuck on the net is always treated like it went out of play. Last team to touch it "put it out of play" effectively.
Also, on a blown icing call, they bring it to center. Both of those are standard.

You are in fact correct - my issue is with making that call for the first time (at least that I've seen all season) at that juncture in game 7 when it isn't blatant that NYR won the race.
