Sabres score an own goal on a delayed penalty with an empty net.

Did they rule that the Utah player never touched the puck or was it that since he wasnt in control of the puck the play is not dead. I mean what if he gets a stick on the puck and changes the angle slightly he's not in control of the puck but ends up in the net so is that the rule that a goal cannot be scored on a delayed penalty off the penalized team

They must have ruled Utah never touched it.

Per the rule book:

(xi) During the delayed calling of a penalty, the offending team cannot score unless the non-offending team shoots the puck into their own net. This shall mean that a deflection off an offending player or any physical action by an offending player that may cause the puck to enter the non-offending team’s goal, shall not be considered a legal goal. Play shall be stopped before the puck enters the net (whenever possible) and the signaled penalty assessed to the offending team.
 
Best player, sure, but is he leading the way is turning around the culture? And what evidence is there he "cares the most about this organization". Rumor was he requested a sit down with the brass and was obviously pleased with what he heard, but also obviously was prepared to say trade me if it went the other way.
Buffalo made two epic mistakes in having Lindy Ruff as coach and Dahlin as captain. The results speak for themselves. They seem to have regressed an awful lot this season.
