Re: Wisconsin Hockey: Episode XXXI: A New Hope
Not that I can tell. And refs may be aware of NHL interpretations, but it shouldn't come into play here at all. I don't care about the goal, I just am curious as to what's right.
I think most watching the replay would say that what occurred isn't fair, and the goal should be washed out. But because of the way it's written, the rule is ambiguous as to how it actually applies in this case. The thing that surprises me then, is why if it's unclear, they wouldn't wash it out here, as that would seem the fairest outcome. There must have been some reasoning to it, but I have no idea what it was.
