Re: Boston University 17-18 - thread El Segundo
I knew the Greenway goal would be called back as soon as I saw the replay. Tkachuk went into the crease on his own, before the puck was anywhere near there. And it wasn't like it was just the tips of his skates in the crease. He couldn't have been any closer to Woll without touching him than he was. In fact, on the replay, you can see that his head is actually over part of Woll's head at one point (since he so tall, no contact). I don't know the ins and outs of the goalie interference rules, but from an in the crease perspective, the goal should not have counted.
Now, I do have a big beef with the embellishment call and a smaller beef with the goalie interference call against Greenway. The first one was just a bad call. Greenway went down, hopped right back up. I think the ref was indecisive and maybe thought he shouldn't have called the BC penalty to start with, so made up for it by taking them both. On the goalie interference call, Greenway was definitely bumped into Woll - it was more obvious live than on the slow motion replay, to me at least. Given the game situation, I thought that should not have been called. Greenway needs to be smarter though - when you are 6'5", nobody is going to miss a hard charge to the net, and if you are too rough, there is potential for that to get called.
I frankly expected a make-up call sooner than halfway through overtime. I didn't see the slash, and it isn't on the broadcast, so hard to tell how hard Hutsko swung his stick as he went down.
