La règle de la LNH sur l’interférence du gardien de but est l’une des règles les plus mal formulées et les plus incohérentes de tous les sports professionnels. Rester simple.

But they'e just trying to give New Jersey a fighting chance to make the playoffs. Just like the penalty shot awarded to Hughes with 3 seconds left in the game against Anaheim
Thing is, goalie doesn't have to be "set", he has to be able play his position, and here, I think him moving out to face the shot is "playing the position", and he got bumped. I'd have waved it off too. He didn't do the Marc-Andre Fleury deliberate bump into a guy already in front of him, he had a clear path when he pushed off, and the Carolina player bumped him.
The goalie has to be allowed to play his position, and the contact with the skate interferes with his ability to plant that skate to make a move (even just arm movement….Newton's third law). Not enough to call a penalty, but still enough to wave off the goal.
The attacking player makes no attempt to avoid making contact with the goalie's skate. Just because he tried to avoid getting hit by the shot, does not absolve him of the contact just prior.
And just because the goalie is still moving slightly, does not mean he has not established position. He was there first, which is why the video shows the attackers skate hitting the goalie's skate…not the other way around.
But this is why I am a weirdo and propose that they extend the crease some, and make it a hard barrier….no attackers in the blue, and no goalies out of the blue (or make them fair game out of it.)
My disagreement is that the goalie's right skate is still in the crease (on the line) when the skater first makes contact.
Goalie jumped too far out, making it a good goal
Who the hell is using flash photography at a game, and why aren't we tackling that issue? Almost looks intentional…
Good goal. Incidental and outside the crease is the key. If we start being picky about this type of call:
1. Whats the point of the crease if its interference whenever the goalie moves forward
2. Every officiating team will start calling it differently based off judgement. Which would make fans irritated come playoff time when games are far more important
