But the puck wasn't shot on goal.

You can't prove he didn't do it on purpose! But I can't imagine the rule there is that the shot has to be purposeful. You can't score without shooting on goal.Is there any precedent for them to replay this? Normally you don't replay officiating mistakes of course, but nothing happened after the goal (obviously), so there's no reason it couldn't happen. I'm sure a final score is a final score, but it does seem a little to let the result stand if indeed the goal was illegal in a non-arguable way.

Dallas Eakins‏@dallaseakinsNever forget that @theahl is a developmental league for the referees as well. Players and coaches have made mistakes. We all move on.

Why didn't the goalie make any effort to stop the puck? Seems like he could've stuck his stick out or something.

The goal didn't violate the rule that has been referenced.

Again, why? Still because it wasn't "shot on goal?" I'm pretty sure that what happened meets the definition of "shot" - the rule even states that it can't go off an official before going in, implying that "shot" is pretty leniently defined.

It didn't deflect off the goalie.It didn't deflect off an official.It didn't deflect off a player.The play was onside when the puck went in.To rely on this rule to disallow the goal would not be the intention of this rule.

[Zach6668]

Disagree that it's not the intention of the rule.

[DJ Vu]

The puck went in without being touched by anyone. Seems like it was on goal to me.

It was shot into the corner.

The AHL has come out and said it shouldn't have counted. Sorry Dale but that is a shot on goal.

[DJ Vu]

Trick shot.

Must've been a Bruins official who said that. They count anything within 25 feet of the net as a shot on goal.

[runthemover]

I believe the intent of the rule is to disallow any goal that comes from a delayed offside. I do think that the wording of the rule is poor because they point out all the cases that are OK but leave out this case that could be interpreted as being indirect because the puck went off the boards.The rule is just trying to say that if it was a delayed offside and a defending player directed the puck to his own net, it becomes a live puck again.

[dEv~]

If it goes in it counts as a shot on goal. Not an opinion...just a fact.

They're going to **** this up.

Nah, they're going to hoist it in front of your eyes. You going to game 6?

[Zach6668]

This has turned into a pretty good series. Last night's game was really good hockey, IMHO. Considering the first two games went to OT, this is pretty much how I was predicting the series would go. Lots of close games, with LA having maybe a slight edge.
