#NHLVideos: You Make The Call: Did this puck cross the line?



During the 2nd period, Matt Martin’s shot goes under the pad of Arvid Soderblom and goes under review.

  1. I was shocked they counted this, not because I didn’t think it was in, but because the situation room had to apply common sense rather than evidence for the call. baby steps for them, but i’m proud nonetheless

  2. I think this was “probably” a goal. But the fact that there’s no way to say that for certain means it shouldn’t have been overturned. I think the refs came to the same conclusion, it’s probably a good goal. But I have yet to see any evidence that it certainly is. The fact the league posts a video “what do you think?” Seems clear that it’s not definitive. If it’s not definitive then it shouldn’t be overturned. The goal ended up not impacting the result of the game but still we can’t set a precedent of overturning unconfirmable goals

  3. This is why the puck needs a sensor inside it when it crosses the goal line but hey almost 2023 and still watching and wondering if the puck went in.

  4. In European leagues they have a second line that’s approximately the same distance from the goal line and if it touches that line it’s a goal

    The NHL should have this

  5. Even though you can't see the puck, you can see the goal line and the ice beyond it, and it is literally impossible to explain why you can't see the puck unless it's completely in the net. That's conclusive evidence. Good goal.

    And this video title is clickbait. They know it was in.

  6. That's interesting. I agree that it was a goal. Yet there is not one single frame that shows the puck behind the line. What's the exact wording of the rule?
