Does anyone know if there has been an explanation for the goalie interference?
Foegele made contract with the goalie. No doubt. Did it impact his ability to make the save? Maybe. Hart was sliding to the one side following Foegele across when Hyman slammed it into the opposite side. So without contact, Hart would have had to stop his momentum, the slide back across in a split second. Could he had done it? No clue. Did the contact make it so the rebound control wasn't that great? No clue but he would have given up a rebound regardless. But there was contact no doubt.
My question is and maybe the league explains it which I doubt, what should Foegele have done to make that goal count? Foegele was driving hard to the goal, defender near him, he was trying to slam the puck in. Hart slides across on purpose and slides into Foegele on purpose to stop the shot but also make it so Foegele couldn't get it up. So Hart helped create the contact. So how does Foegele avoid that? As Hart slams himself into Foegele, are they expecting Foegele to either not drive the net and try not to score, float or try to leap over Hart or backwards?
I hate calls like that because there appears to be nothing Foegele can do to avoid contact so you just resound yourself to loving a goal just because.
