Should this have counted?

  1. No. Dude slated into the crease without the puck and made contact. Not even really debatable.

  2. He skates right into the blue and the goalie without anyone pushing him in, the fact that you guys are acting like this is a controversial call is crazy to me right now lol

  3. Even though he seems to not be trying to hit the goalie directly.. the result is still him wandering aroudn in the blue paint at 10km/h and hitting thr goalie glove and lower body resulting in a drop puck and then a given rebound.

    Its inteference

  4. Nope. Easy GI there. He isn’t forced into the goalie- he took a path that caused him to clip the goalie.

  5. No goal.

    Technically, it’s always been goalie interference, it was just rarely called for many years. 

  6. If you enter the crease and touch the goalie, you risk a GI penality

    Is it called consistently? Hell no. But it can be called.

    So if you choose to take that risk, it can go against you.

    He was in the crease. He bumped the goalie. It did qualify for the penality under the rules.

    Should it have been called, imo, its a coin flip, I can make arguments both ways.

    But when you leave it up to the refs, thats the risk you take.

  7. Who knows anymore, they change the rules every game, the answer with hockey it sometimes counts, it sometimes doesn’t, no one really knows.

  8. That’s the easiest goal tender interference call I’ve seen since the playoffs

  9. I hate Carolina, but by the standard the NHL applies, this is clearly goaltender interference. Player skates into the crease on his own, and makes clear contact with the goalie in the crease.

  10. No, it should not. Textbook interference; the goalie is entitled to his blue paint, and Sanheim broke that boundary and was not pushed into the net otherwise.

    No goal. No controversy.
