The fact that people are even questioning these interference calls is bizarre to me. So clear-cutThis is all but identical to the Rempe no-goal which led to the recent “brutal call” thread. In both cases it was a clear-cut correct call.
the crease is the goalie's space. they get priority for positioning themselves in the crease.You’re allowed to stand in the crease tho, no?
Didn’t see any interference aside from him blocking his view. Don’t think he touched him?
the interference happened well before the shot came and Vladar was able to reset.
The issue is consistency with the rule. Perry also probably doesn't the benefit of doubt.
I was upset at the time, but I don't really care now.
I literally said I don’t care anymore about itPhysical interference or not... it doesn't matter. Perry was in the crease obstructing Vladar while he was trying to play the puck.
Watch the video. If you still disagree I just don't know what to say otherwise. The video explanation is iron clad.
There's a reason that area is painted blue, it's very simple, had Perry been standing in the paint to the side and deflected it in it's no problem but if you impede the goalie from making a save within that area it's interference, period.I don't like the rule at all. Let the goalie fight for position. If a player wants to stand in the crease, the Dman or goalie should have the right to blast the guy. If a player decided to try to screen me in my crease, he ended up on his butt because I would step around him with my leg conveniently behind his legs. PK had nothing on me.
Rarely does the league make a call that’s a head scratcher, the only issue is how fans decide their personal interpretation of the rule should be.I think they've set the standard for interference and that's considered it. Only issue is that half the time they won't call it by their own standards.
I think this is the most agreement I've ever seen on hfboards!
Should we all hold hands?
I’m actually surprised he doesn’t get a penalty for hooking the goalie’s foot out from under him a couple of seconds before the goal. The commentators shook that off as if it was no biggie, because Vladar had time to reset again. But seriously, how is that play legal?
