It's a rule in the CBA, I'm almost convinced of it.  Something like Subsection 48.2, clause RW-G.  "All goals scored while physically on top of the Red Wings goalie shall be counted, without possibility of review."

On an interesting side note, Subsection 48.3, clause TH says "If Tomas Holmstrom is even in the same building as the game being played, regardless of his status or availability to play in said game, any goal scored by the Red Wings can be waived off as Incidental Contact with the goalie.  A penalty can be imposed, solely at the discretion of the referee...

...and Gary Bettman."

I'm with you here!!  I was surprised not to see Gary listed as an assist on the Goal.


I'm upset about Jimmy's injury, but I have complete faith in JoeyMac, even without his NHL testing some people are calling for.  You know why? because I'm not one of those doom-and-gloomers that are so prevalent in the Red Wings fan base!  Win or lose I am a Red Wings fan - If their life just became a little harder in the playoffs, so what? THEY ARE THE RED WINGS!

I hope Jimmy is ok, and that he is able to return to the team.  People bitching about the Red Wings not being contenders in the playoffs now are just as bad as Gary Bettman in my book.  He took this league to a place where you have a superstar on a team and everyone else plays around them.  Detroit s full of superstars and they play together.  One player does not decide the fate of the team - the team does.  So, look at what you're doing when you start bitching, because you're acting alot like Gary Bettman, and that is NOT a good idea.

Why the he'll is everyone ripping so hard on Osgood? He played a solid game for his first start back, and the Wings got 5 of 6 points on the trip.
