Would the Goal Judge Allow the Goal on Purpose...?

Question

Suppose something happened like the Penguins scored a goal at the buzzer to win it in OT. The play is reviewed, and the goal is VERY boarderline, but after close examination one will see that it was NOT a goal. Do you think the goal judges and the people in Toronto (knowing it was not a goal, though it was very close) say that it WAS a goal in order to extend the series to six games, and possibly a seventh? That way they have more revenue through ticket sales, advertising, NBC will have more viewers, etc.?

Answer 1

Golf is what people do when they retire and no longer can play physical and REAL sports!

Answer 2

I'm not saying a word about "iffy" goals...cause I'm still bitter...

Answer 3

No they wouldn't. They are completely un-biased as to time, score, team, etc.

Answer 4

It is not the goal judge who really makes the call. He is only there to show every one that there COULD have been a goal. The call would be determined by what the referees did on the ice at that time

Answer 5

The use instant reply in the NHL so that would be corrected
