Clearly, that goal should have been disallowed….
NHL Rule no. 69.3 Contact Inside the Goal Crease – If an attacking player initiates contact with a goalkeeper, incidental or otherwise, while the goalkeeper is in his goal crease, and a goal is scored, the goal will be
disallowed.
Referees are quetionnable
How is it interference when #1 Cleary didn’t “Make Contact” with Hiller, his stick did when he was executing a scoring play. #2 Have you seen some of the breakaway goals that are allowed that a forward blatantly runs over a goalie and then the puck goes in and it stands, or a goalie gets knocked down, can’t get back up and the goal is allowed? This wasn’t interference, he went after a loose puck and happened to poke it in. Hiller needs to take care of his rebounds better and then there will be no issues! Remember the disallowed goal that should have clearly been allowed when the ref in the corner blew the whistle?? It all comes back to Karma……
