The NHL is really getting to a point where they need to have a head official in a booth somewhere, who is connected by radio with the other officials.
When incidents like yesterday’s happens, the booth official can simply say, there’s no penalty there, and the game can resume with no penalty.
They could even be communicating in real time to review a play before blowing the play dead.
