Upon reflection I wonder what Coleman might have done differently had he known the goal would be called off.

I guess he should have, at all costs, avoided touching the puck. This probably would have opened himself up to a pretty good chance of injury since his only weight-bearing point of contact with the ice was the skate that touched the puck.

Seems like the indirect message the league is sending is don't touch the puck with anything but your stick and sacrifice your body.

I'm sure Coleman would have accepted injury and missing time if it meant the goal would stand.
