The Chicago Blackhawks won in a bizarre overtime twist Thursday against the Montreal Canadiens after Philipp Kurashev’s game-winning goal was initially under review.
Near the midway point of overtime in a 2-2 tie, Philipp Kurashev received a pass from Brandon Hagel at the offensive blue line, then bulldozed his way to the net and into Montreal Canadiens goaltender Sam Montembault. The puck appeared to cross the goal line right as the net came off its moorings, but the original call on the ice was no goal.
After an extremely lengthy video review, the official turned on his microphone and announced that the puck did, in fact, cross the line before the net came off its moorings. But before the official could finish the second part of his statement, the United Center crowd erupted in a cheer. There was more to say: Montreal was challenging for offside, which led to another lengthy review.
