There have been more than a few questionable calls so far this season that have potentially cost teams a point or two in the standings. The latest victim? The Nashville Predators, who were scored upon by Matt Duchene - a very offside Matt Duchene. From TSN's Instagram feed comes the helpful illustration above.

Before Tuesday night’s game against Detroit, Nashville’s Craig Smith last scored a goal in last season’s finale at Colorado.
