Little help

Re: Little help

Here's a real-life example from this past season that's not directly on point but provides some guidance as to how EN goals that turn out t be the GWG are scored -- Bowdoin v St. A:

http://collegehockeystats.net/1011/boxes/mbowsta1.f18

The winning goal is the empty netter (the 6th goal), which made the score 6-4. St. A came back to score a 5th goal after the EN goal, making the final score 6-5 and the EN goal the GWG. The starting goalie was credited with the loss even though he was not in net for the GWG (the empty netter).

Another potential question, which this answers is the situation in which the GWG is an empty net goal - which could happen if it is scored on a delayed penalty. Even though the goalie isn't on the ice when it scores, he still gets the win.
