What a game!! So stressful. So proud of these women.
And a shoutout to the men’s hockey team who showed up, sat in the students section, and cheered like crazy for the women. Stayed for the celebration too. Great to see the support.
Pretty full arena. Great atmosphere.
Can anyone find the official rule in the book? That puck was well on its way towards the net before Woodworth's skate fully entered the crease. It's a good solid call by the refs given the closeness of what transpired and something that wasn't even seeable in real time. For a lot of reasons it was the right outcome by the refs, but we also know that this may not have held this game were played in Boston.Very very very close call.
I think she was probably in the crease about a tenth early.
It also deflected off the Northeastern player’s shin. I would like to hear an explanation.Can anyone find the official rule in the book?

I'm only going by what the announcer said -- that the puck needed to be in the crease before her skate was fully in. Again, it was very very close but when the did slo-mo overhead it did look like she was in the crease just before the puck was.Can anyone find the official rule in the book?
