Oddity: Nazar's shootout attempt (originally called no goal) ruled a goal after the next Hab already shot

[Gil Gunderson]

NHL should overturn the game result

Call it even. Nobody gets the extra point!

 

[Captain97]

Where do the rules state that? It isn’t under the section about shootout rules.

That's my problem, what is the rule? And if there isn't one the NHL needs to release a statement explaining what and why.

It isn't that hard

 

[TrufleShufle]

How do you miss that lol

He didn't, the puck went in the net, you can see it.

Sold

 

[Fatass]

Yeah i agree just bush reffing
Don’t they grab the puck lmao

I think most people watching, even on TV, could see the puck went in the net. Not too sure what four officials were looking at to not see?

 

[Woodrow]

What I don't understand is don't refs retrieve the puck after a shootout attempt. What did they think happened to the puck?

 

[SI90]

The oddest thing is that it wasn’t called a goal originally?? Why wasn’t it called a good goal? Looks clear as day lol

 

[waffledave]

does laine have to redo it if he scored?

Yes I think so. I think Chicago would be justified in asking for that too.

The rules are specific about the re-setting of clocks when an undetected goal is identified during live play.

There is no rule saying that a shootout must be re-set due to an undetected goal, or that the goal must be detected within a specific timeframe. As far as I can tell, people are just making that up.

Just a lil Easter egg hunt

Hah the mixed feelings of winning late in a tank season

I guess the refs felt the puck went over the glass and out of the rink.

Eh I’m happy with the win no doubt. We aren’t catching the sharks anyway.

 

[Frank Drebin]

Nazar was too cool on the celly

I can't find it either, that's why I want an explanation from the league. As a Habs fan that goal should count I just want clarity in the ruling.

 

[gojetsgo]

There is no argument. The rule states the call can't be changed once the next shootout has started.

can you send a link to the rule?

The referees should be fired. They just assumed the puck went over the netting into the crowd? They sure as hell didn't see it go out. Their job is to see the puck. If they don't see the puck, they need to investigate by replay. Nazar didn't see it but he was skating by, probably thought he lost sight of it, and it's not his job.

I'm looking forward to seeing what the NHL's rule is on the matter. Or did they just make it up on the spot?

I mean, it's good it was called a goal, as it was a goal, but what a mess.

 

[tarheelhockey]

They should have done their jobs in the first place (either called it no goal because he lost the puck or called it a goal) but they didn't.

I think we all agree on that. The fact that this was missed is bizarre.

There is no way they can go back in time and change the result of a previous shot after it has happened. It's bush league and against the rules of the sport (let alone common sense).

The rules say the play has to be reivewed before it restarts. They f***ed up bigly, per usual.

The rules don’t say that. The concept of resetting the play due to a detected goal has entirely to do with resumption of play. Shootouts are not a timed play. There is no “resumption of play” in the shootout.

Furthermore, the idea of delaying a faceoff during the course of a review doesn’t exist in the shootout. That rule exists so that you don’t have a review going on while other things (goals, penalties) are accumulating, and then having to reverse everything. This dynamic doesn’t exist at all when there’s no clock.

You just made that up! Too funny

I can only assume they figured it got tangled in the netting above the glass or something.

They thought he lost the puck and it wasn't a chance. Referees in the NHL are so bad it's comical.

 

[Fatass]

this thread has so much interest it overshadows a fantastic Demidov game. Maybe the league should do away with the shootout?

Please tell me that's not their actual assumption because then that's even more blisteringly incompetent.

 

[MardyBum]

He didn't, the puck went in the net, you can see it.

I meant the refs and everyone else.

The puck travels in one direction, into the f***ing net lol.
