I think most missed it when it happened but...

When the referees watched the replay on the tablet, they were checking to see 2 things. One if the puck went in and secondly if the posts were on the post when it did. During the watching of that replay, they(toronto) decided the goal went in and the posts were on, but there was goaltender interference to allow it to enter the net.

When he came out to explain it over the PA system he said,

" after further review there is no goal....there was goaltender interference on the goalie "(redundancy and all but thats what he said)

So if GG was to call for a review it would have been to challenge something they already decided after review. In others words....pointless.
