NHL GMs Can't Agree On Offside Video Review 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Mar 7, 2017 9:49 pm

A lack of consensus among the NHL's 31 general managers at the annual meetings Tuesday means it's status quo on the offside video review that has produced so much acrimony this season.

Specifically, it was thought that perhaps there would be enough of an appetite among the group to tweak the offside rule to make players who have a skate up in the air across the blue line be onside.

Instead, the NHL GMs on Tuesday decided to leave it be.

"We think the offside (review) is working," said Oilers GM Peter Chiarelli. "There's obviously some calls that are disputed. We were part of one in Nashville. But I think it's working. We're working out the kinks."
