The video referee had a different read, and was entitled to have. Personally I favor video referees having only an assisting role and the referee on the ice the final say (and preferably an independent video review possibility), but the IIHF has decided differently and given the final say to the video referee. Perhaps they are encouraged to have second thoughts now, but the farcical way things unfolded was ultimately by the book.
Sure, I can agree to all of that.
If I understood correctly, you think that while goalie did initiate the contact but she was doing so while reaching for the puck and, therefore a different rule applies, which is fair enough, and that is how I also understand the video referee saw it.
I think the goalie knew the puck was gone, as to me it was completely clear from the ceiling that she had no chance and did not really even lunge at the direction of the puck but rather more towards the corner straight into the skates of the Finnish forward. Therefore in my opinion she was most likely just fishing for a penalty and a stoppage of play and, it cost them a goal and a game, that an incompetent video referee later overturned.
But enough of this. I thank you for an excellent conversation
