Apparently it was a unanimous decision in Toronto from all 4 video reviewers. How does that happen when 95% of the rest of the hockey world thinks it was a brutal travesty of a call.

Complete BS.
Are they serious?

"Last night it was unanimous amongst the four of us, the puck was pushed over the line in intentional fashion," explained Mike Murphy, the NHL’s senior vice-president of hockey operations.

"You can stop a puck into the net and you can redirect it into the net, but you can't drag or push a puck into the net. We saw him pushing the puck into the net."
For the millionth time: INTENT IS NOT THE RULE. PUSHING IS NOT THE RULE. THE RULE IS WHETHER THERE IS A DISTINCT KICKING MOTION.

I’m over the call but they obviously need to fix it because they’re either wrong or they’ve changed the rule without telling anyone else.
