I'm really surprised that they counted it, for numerous reasons:
He was well into the crease, it could have easily been interference.
It could easily have been called a kicking motion.
It's pretty rare that they turn over the call on the ice.
I actually wish they hadn't counted the goal, because it makes me afraid that we will get a "make-up call" going against us when it really matter, i.e. playoff time.
Was that the game where Holmstrom was getting crosschecked in the back in an unfriendly way, refused to face his attacker and Luc F'n Robitaille of all people had to come in to stop the madness?
Yes, it was that game and while I agree with you, I wish Homer had fought, I believe that he had been told not to fight and he was just obeying orders.
Either way I don't blame Kocur for throwing the chair.
