I'm not a fan of it either gerbs.

This challenge craps gotta go...

goalie interference on Huberdeau? Replay kinda looks that way.

edit-McCabe does push him a bit.

Yeah. Was about to say they need to challenge that. Not goalie interference warranting a penalty, but it definitely should be interference that negates a goal.

Should be no goal, no penalty, but it won't be.

Such horsesh!t. Huberdeau makes no effort to minimize contact. Doesn't matter whether he was pushed.

We're on the wrong end of this challenge crap tonight.

Well, the rule they just showed on screen says it does matter if he was pushed by a defender. I have no sound. Was that the basis for upholding the goal?

*EDIT* I can't rewind on my phone, either, so I was limited to the couple replays I saw initially. So I don't know if he even was pushed.

Easy homer. It's NHL not NBA or FIFA.

Yes. By rule if the defending player pushed the player into the goalie it's allowed. Good goal.

My god the Bills and these F$$KIN penalty's.

Read Paul Stewart's blog on it. Even if you're pushed you still have to try and minimize contact, which Huberdeau doesn't bother with.

Great pass skunk no finish lion.

They're just not getting enough sustained pressure in the offensive zone. Gotta keep up with the forecheck.

Yep. Skunk has made a few nice plays with the puck tonight. I like that line.

How old is Jagr?

3. An attacking player has been pushed toward the goalkeeper by a defending player, careening heavily into the goaltender as the puck is about to enter the net.

Directive: No goal, penalty on the attacking player. The wording here is intentionally a bit vague -- the next scenario fills in a key missing piece -- but the onus is still one the attacking player to at least try to avoid the contact if he's pushed by a defender. Simply being pushed by a defender in the vicinity of net does NOT give the attacker license to steamroll the goalie with no effort to avoid the contact. Remember that the next time your local team announcer is hollering about how "he was CLEARLY pushed into the goalie" and ignores a lack of effort by the attacking player to avoid the contact. Was there sufficient opportunity for the attacker try to twist his body? Was there any effort to at least slow himself down? If the answer is no, the attacking team gets penalized.

4. An attacking player has been pushed into the goalkeeper by a defender, attempting and failing to twist out of the way to avoid contact, and the puck enters the net.

Directive: Goal. The attacker got pushed and the contact with the goalie was inadvertent so the defending team pays the price here with a goal against.

I'd say it's closer to #3 because he never tries to avoid contact.
