Slovaks just need to make it to OT and they have basically guaranteed survival in the Elite. Italy isnt going to be taking points anymore.
 
I believe the reason was there was no intention to move the goal from our side and it was indeed moved before the puck crossed the line.

As was said before, a tough call and bound to make one side unhappy.

True and it's not that big a deal. It's our own fault the game is tied after being up 3-0.
 
I know. The point is, the puck would have been in the goal had the Slovakian not moved it out of position.

I honestly don't know the rules that well, but i assume (or hope at least) that the video referee does. So if the rule really is that the goal is legit only when it crosses the line before the post is moved no matter who moved it, than this was a tough call.
Though i would agree with you that its a dumb rule since it doesn't accommodate cases like this (because yea, logicaly - this should have been a goal).
 
An extremely important point for Slovakia to keep them from relegation.
Let's see if they can steal a second one in the overtime...
 
I don't think there was enough evidence to overturn it. If the call on the ice was no goal I would have have said it shouldn't count.
I'm not sure what does rule exactly say. It was clear that goal was moved a moment before puck crossed the line. However, according to our TV announcers is is still possible to call the good goal, but I'm not sure about conditions - maybe obvious intentional goal displacement
 
It is a big deal.....in the future just fake something and throw yourself into your own goal, must be the lesson we learned here

Our commentators just said that if both sides of the goal are dislocated, it's a clear no goal and if only one side is off, it's up to the video referee to make the call (in case of intentionally moving the post, they usually rule a goal, if it was unintentional, or moved by the attacking team, it's a case by case basis, I guess).
 
According to §98 section 2 it was a good goal.

Ref mistake :)

Doesnt change the fact that its horrible by DK giving up 3 goals.

We all know about this world right now. Nobody knows the anthems... Refs dont know the rules... so what ?
 
RULE 98 – SCORING A GOAL/GOAL FRAME OFF

i. If a defending player displaces his own goal frame and the opposing
team scores a goal, the goal will be allowed provided:

1. The opponent was in the act of shooting prior to the goal frame
being displaced;

2. The referee determines the puck would have entered the goal net
had the goal frame been in its normal position.

Well regarding the first point .. I'm not sure it counts that opponent was in the act of shooting before when the goalie clearly makes the save and only after that a sliding body moves everything....
