Coach’s Challenge: Bruins vs Coyotes

The Referee confirmed no goaltender interference infractions occurred before the puck crossed the goal line. Good goal Arizona Coyotes.

It's close, but I agree that the call should stand because the standard to overturn the call should be clear and convincing. There's an argument to be made for goalie interference at the start of the play, when Arizona #14 is partially in the crease and makes contact with the goalie on his own accord. The interference is not clear and convincing to me, as Boston #86 keeps him in the crease and against the goaltender as the play develops and leads to a goal. If the goal had occurred sooner, or if #14 had been in contact with the goalie on his own accord later, I would say that's clear and convincing.

The NHL should also allow challenges to negate goalie interference. If goalie interference had been called, and it was challenged, there may not be clear and convincing evidence to overturn it, either. In other words, I think this play falls in the gray area, though more towards the side of no interference. Unforced contact is made on the goalie, but it comes significantly before the goalie attempts to stop the goal.

That is interference, no surprise this is already a joke.

How was that a goal!?, the player was in his crease and leaning on the goalie. I'm not a Bruins fan but that 100% not goal and a penalty for goalie interference !!
