Re: Oswego State Laker Hockey 2012-13...Part 2..Because Norwich's thread didn't close
Regarding the "goal that wasn't" from the game last Saturday, I talked to some of the Oswego players that raised their hands in celebration. The basic consensus is that they saw Chewy catch the puck but they thought it was on the wrong side of the goal line. They were fairly confident that it passed over the goal line before landing in Chewy's glove. Whether it actually happened that way or not is hard to tell since the video available really isn't conclusive, but that's at least the explanation for why they started celebrating. I do know that the ref was on the opposite side of the goal and would've had a very hard time seeing whether the puck crossed the line or not. It's too bad there's no video review at this level. Might've changed the course of the game. Then again, might not have. It's killing me thinking it could've gone either way.
