Now that cameras in the posts is possible I think the review procedures should be re-written.

1. Every regulation NHL net have 11 camera embedded into the posts. One on the bottom of each post along the ice surface; one 1/3 of the way up each of the post; one 2/3 of the way up the post; one in the corner where the post intersects the cross-bar which would give a 45 degree view; one 1/4 across the crossbar, one 1/2 across the cross bar, one 3/4 across the cross bar.

2. There be a camera positioned exactly above the crossbar/goal line above the net.

3. There be a camera positioned off ice along the goal line on each side of the net.

4. The call on the ice is irrelevant. The review is done to see if the puck was in the net or not.

5. If the net is knocked off the moorings rendering the call inconclusive, the call is construed against the team that knocked the net off. IE: If an attacker bumps a player into the net and the puck goes in but it's not conclusive, no goal. If a defender bumps the net rendering the call inconclusive, it's a good goal.




If the above procedure was followed, likely the review would be inconclusive (as the net was knocked off the moorings). However, where the net was knocked off the moorings by Anaheim it would have yielded a good goal for Calgary. However, if the cause of the net being bumped was due to a Flames player, it would have been (as it was) no goal.
