Bruins have two goals disallowed vs Pens (Videos)

The Bruins streak of being unlucky continued versus the Pens last night. They had not one but two goals disallowed. Each were around the midpoint of the 1st and second periods. Patrice Bergeron and Carl Soderberg both had potential goals called back. Bergeron due to a high stick and Soderberg due to directing the puck into the net with his glove. Here are the videos of both disallowed goals, courtesy of NBCSN: Here is the official explanation from the NHL as to why the goal was called off: At 10:00 of the first period in the Pittsburgh Penguins/Boston Bruins game, the referees held a group huddle that determined Patrice Bergeron’s stick was above the height of the crossbar when he deflected the puck into the net. Video review confirmed that group decision. According to Rule 60.5 “An apparent goal scored by an attacking player who strikes the puck with his stick carried above the height of the crossbar of the goal frame shall not be allowed. The determining factor is where the puck makes contact with the stick.” No goal Boston.
