Type of Challenge: Goaltender Interference
Result: Call on the ice is upheld – No Goal Nashville
Explanation:
Video review supported the Referee’s call on the ice that Nashville’s Marc Del Gaizo impaired the ability of Washington goaltender Logan Thompson to play his position in the crease. The decision was made in accordance with Rule 69.1 which states, in part, that “Goals should be disallowed only if: (1) an attacking player, either by his positioning or by contact, impairs the goalkeeper’s ability to move freely within his crease or defend his goal.”
