As much as it sucks to see a game end on a missed call like that (or, not end, I guess), I hope they don't ever make off-sides reviewable on goals.

The blue line is 64 feet from the goal line. The missed call didn't directly contribute to the goal being scored. They still had to go in and score the goal. It wasn't even scored directly on the first shot after the missed call, 5 seconds ticked off the clock between the play at the blueline and the goal.

I don't like the idea of allowing reviews on things that happened 50 or more feet away from the goal, some undetermined amount of time before the goal was scored.
