What do you mean they reviewed it again? Did Col challenge the challenge? (Is that even a thing)

No idea they looked at the play again before they dropped the puck.

We dont know.

I suspect the league intervened to fix what was about to be an error by the officiating crew. They sounded the horn just as they were about to drop the puck and play on.

Maybe Toronto gave them a call?

For getting calls right?


Certainly a take.

No, for not getting it right the 1st time. Need 10 reviews to get it right.

Sounds like it. Understandable how it could play out that the refs on the ice would review the play for what the coach challenged, then issue their ruling up to Toronto, then Toronto notices that there’s another contextual factor that the refs failed to consider.

No real issue with this as there is a lot going on at ice level and the purpose of Toronto is to catch stuff like this.

Coach’s challenge.

No definitive evidence that it’s a take.

While odd they got it right. If the refs/linesman review a play and because of a weird sequence of events they get it wrong I'm happy someone(whether the NHL office or Colorado) clarified to them what actually happened and they're still allowed to alter their review decision once they understand.

Eddie O is still confused as to what happened, despite the referee clearly explaining it.
