Challenge Initiated By: Toronto
Type of Challenge: Goaltender Interference
Result: Call on the ice is overturned – No goal Washington
Explanation: Video review determined Washington’s Nic Dowd impaired Joseph Woll’s ability to play his position in the crease prior to John Carlson’s goal. The decision was made in accordance with Rule 69.1 which states, in part, “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.”
