Post subject:  More officiating follies - Thrashers no goal vs Devils

I watched this last night but didn't post about it until now. Thrashers get an o-zone face-off with about 45 seconds left and down 3-2. Point shot gets tipped by Kane for a goal, but is immediately waved off for a high stick. The replay from the opposite end boards shows the crossbar even with the top of the boards behind it. Kane's stick blade is at least even, but probably a few inches BELOW the top of the boards when he tips the puck...therefore at least even or below the crossbar. It's such an easy call to make, but of course Toronto rules no-goal also. I wish this stuff was still surprising, but I'm used to NHL officials getting it wrong.

Forward to the 3:30 mark to see the play in real time, scroll to 4:10 to watch the replay from the end boards. Shake head in wonder, repeat step one.
