[QUOTE="gone, post: 276138, member: 5899"] OK I'll bite: YIPPEEEEE!!!...the Oilers won their series last night! I've never played organized hockey so perhaps I don't understand the call, but I was surprised when Coleman's goal was disallowed. I imagine there's quite a few frustrated Calgary fans today...however who knows what would have happened to the series if the goal counted and Calgary won last night's game (assuming the Oilers wouldn't have scored after to once again tie it up during regular play). Looking this up on the Web this morning, I see the NHL rule that was applied states: [B]"Plays that involve a puck entering the net as a direct result of a "distinct kicking motion" shall be ruled NO GOAL. A "distinct kicking motion," for purposes of Video Review, is one where the video makes clear that an attacking Player has deliberately propelled the puck with a kick of his foot or skate and the puck subsequently enters the net. A goal cannot be scored on a play where an attacking Player propels the puck with his skate into the net (even by means of a subsequent deflection off of another Player) using a "distinct kicking motion."[/B] Coleman denies intentionally kicking the puck in and it looked to me that he didn't: his momentum carried him into the net and his skate looked to slide forward into the puck, when he was caught up with Cody Ceci. It also looked like the puck was going in anyway, had his skate not made contact with it. Having said that, two of the commentators during the subsequent intermission, were quite certain it was the correct call: they talked about Coleman looking at the puck and deliberately directing it in with his skate, and they both have lots of professional hockey experience. Regardless, the game is over and it's time to move forward: nice the Oilers have a break before starting the next series, so they can rest up and have more time to recover from any injuries. Go Oilers GO! [/QUOTE]
