Yet another controversial goalie interference call

[Hunter368]

Good call by the refs

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

In my world a goaltender is allowed to make an attempt to stop a puck regardless of whether a player is inside or outside his crease.

We're not living in your world. We're living in the real world.

Good goal. Not in the crease. Anderson skates into him kicks his leg out and trips him.

Exactly. Clear kick into his legs, while out of the crease. Good goal and a bad call from 5 years ago has nothing to do with this.

Here is another post saying the goal against Ottawa was good.

 

[Albus Dumbledore]

-Carrier was never in the blue paint
-Andersen flirted with the line and ultimately was outside of it a bit
-Andersen also eventually has a portion of himself outside the paint

Good goal all day everyday.

Last nights was a good goal. Goalie came out of the crease to initiate contact and paid the price. Goalies are now trying to sell goaltender interference by initiating contact and I'm glad the refs saw it that way. The call from 5 years ago was bad, really bad. That should have been a goal too so maybe just be happy that they screwed up in your favor instead of pretending like they should refer to their own mistakes from 5 years ago and use that as the standard.

I’ve said what I’ve wanted to say and I don’t have the time to get into a back and forth but I don’t think what we see is all that different rather out believe in what a goalie should be able to do.

Also the idea that you would call a penalty on Anderson if the play turned out differently is uh.... interesting.

I would call it interference/tripping on him as I believe it was his intention to do that on Carrier. I'm one of those that believes goalies are a little babied in this league.

Also there is no back and forth, your wrong on this one and your belief and what you see is your own and not what the nhl and 99 % of people see.
You believe a goalie even outside the paint should have freedom to move around to make saves and for skaters to get out of the way or it's a penalty. So yeah there is no further explanation that will open your eyes. I see it how it is, you see it... Well I don't know what you see and we will leave it at that

At first, i was like that goal was totally going to be called back. But then i saw the replay and saw that Anderson initiated contact and though maybe the goal will stand. It was a grey area call.

Honestly though, i think it was the right call.

The problem is that these goalie interference calls are so inconsistent.

 

[KDOTO]

In my world a goaltender is allowed to make an attempt to stop a puck regardless of whether a player is inside or outside his crease.

So in your world you think the onus is on the player to step a side, leave his position and let the goalie go pass him to make a save, that's what your saying,
... Man that is one weird world your living in.

Goalie jumps into the guy outside of the crease, and once he loses his balance he almost hooks the player's leg with his own. Easiest call I've ever made in my entire life.

 

[Rick C137]

I thought this was a pretty clear good goal as soon as I saw Anderson’s leg kick out. Carrier is every bit as entitled to that ice as Anderson and Anderson was the one who initiated contact.

Correct call.

 

[Armourboy]

Good goal. Goaltender initiated contact outside of the crease causing the player to fall on him.

 

[Craig Button]

Good Goal
No doubt No doubt

Anderson and Boucher were whining about Gourde's game winner that was even more egregious.



Anderson needs to realize that he can't knock people over and get GI calls.

 

[ClydeLee]

Another? I dont see it here nor have I seen a controversial goalie interference call all season... though not keeping up with every day

 

[PunkRockLocke]

That should absolutely be a good goal.

Anderson initiated the contact (which the player could not see coming as his back was turned), and it was outside the crease.

An unfortunate play for Anderson, but the team scoring here should not be punished for anything.

 

[Taluss]

Honestly regardless if it should’ve or shouldn’t be interference the whole leauge gets fd over with this so it’s not the shittiest situation. He was out of the crease which doesn’t help

lol Anderson. He actually did very literally jump in the guy's way there

 

[almostawake]

Wasn't in the blue paint and didn't initiate the contact. Don't see the issue...

This is really all that had to be said. The rule is what the rule is. Anderson can either stay within the blue paint and have full protection or he can venture out and assume the risk.
