The offside review call is the bane of the Colorado Avalanche’s existence. No, really, if I wasn’t afraid it would jinx them, I’d wish for their next disallowed goal call to be because of goalie interference.
The Avs have suffered enough at the hands of the offside challenge. We all have. Every single team can trot out a list of disallowed goals due to a wonky goal review.
The latest event happened tonight as the Avalanche faced the New York Islanders. It was a tight game. The Islanders are coached by Barry Trotz, and he’s renowned for his defensive-minded systems.
