I know I'm missing something. Help me out!
The closest I can find is in the rules, table 16 situation 1C.

Quote:
1. THE GOALKEEPER IS IN THE GOAL CREASE.

C. An attacking player makes incidental contact with the goalkeeper at the same time a goal is scored.

Goal is disallowed. The official in his judgment may call a minor penalty on the attacking player. The announcement should be, “No goal due to interference with the goalkeeper.”
Only thing questionable is at the same time, can be interpreted as the whole sequence there. In that case, no goal is a good call.

No wonder even players don’t get goaltender interference calls.
