Agreed.
But once it gets to the review of goalie interference as it is worded, is to determine if the interference prevented the goalie from making the save, not just if the goalie gets touched or slashed or whatever. If the slash pushed the goalie in, or opened up the goalie and the puck popped out then it's clear interference.
The slash hit the head,after the save was made, and his head didn't move and thus didn't appear to affect the goalies ability to save the shot.
