Flyers pull Hart, goal is reversed on review so they put him back in

I'm not sure I've EVER seen something like this in an NHL game

If you haven't been watching tonight's Game 5 action between the Montreal Canadiens and Philadelphia Flyers, do yourself a favour and flip it on ASAP. It's a game that has provided a bit of everything. Big hits, big goals, controversial calls and maybe a first in the NHL... the reverse pulling of an goalie.

Say what?!

Try to stay with me here...

The Habs absolutely stormed Flyers goaltender Carter Hart in the latter half of the second period and it appeared Hart had been given the hook by Flyers head coach Alain Vigneault... but then he wasn't.

The Habs appeared to take a 4-2 lead on this goal, only to have it rescinded on review for an offside play.

Check it out:


Immediately after the goal Hart was summoned to the bench by Vigneault while backup Brian Elliott prepared himself to go in. But then the goal was overturned and Vigneault appeared to have a change of heart (Hart?). 

Check out Hart and Vigneault talking things out during the review stoppage:


No goal. No hook. Get back in there kid!
