Kuklas Korner: the edmonton goal.

Kuklas Korner:


Obvious Edmonton high stick knocked down the puck near the Detroit goal. Ensuing scramble, Edmonton scores. Knocked down puck went directly to Samsonov and he scored on a goal that was also reviewed for a kicking motion. Now I know replay cannot overrule a high stick call, only if a high stick caused the goal. But something should have been done to eliminate that obvious high stick on the puck.

CBC showed camera angles clearly showing it wasn’t a high stick, and both Ron MacLean and Kelly Hrudey (and, FWIW, me) agree it was the right call, and a good goal.
