has this been posted?


from Dregers twitter:

Terry Gregson and last nights officials watched Chi's 5th goal on video after the game and easily determined it should not have counted.


lol thanks guys

i see the canucks getting at least 2 goalie interference penalties tonight

They still owe an explanation to Sabres fans...

WHAT? The NHL admitted a mistake in their officiating?

 

[puckhead]

so do we start tonight up 1-0?
oh well, at least it wasn't in a 3-2 game (or for the Cup, as dash alluded to).

I thought that one was pretty ugly, it looked like 2 guys pushing the goalie in the net. But as long as they said they are sorry...

I'm shocked. The NHL actually shows a shred of integrity. A step in the right direction anyway.

That is very rare !!!! Wow, They admitted a mistake? I must be dreaming.

was anybody even questioning this call? possibly although i have seen people much more outraged against a call and the nhl has done nothing. this is kind of cool.

Only if they give Mayday his goal back, will I accept any apology...

no that's all it it is. Dreger is just reporting that Terry Gregson (head of officiating) and the officials looked a it after the game and determined that they should have called it off.
there was no formal complaint or anything that I'm aware of, the refs just looked at the play after the game and said "oops, our bad"

Okay. Thanks Puck.
