GG was correct in his analysis, IMO. It was a bad positional decision by JG. The only debate is whether he should call out JG when asked about it. I think Sutter would have done it to Iginla (in fact I know he did).
It's a little different quality than Brodie's gaffe, say, in the 3 on 3. It's not like GG is going to explain to everyone and Brodie "hey, it's a bad idea to have the puck slide off your stick from behind the net and go to the other team while in OT".
