Craig Berube has a question about Steven Lorentz' overturned goal
Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube is feeling good today as his Leafs won a pretty difficult game against the likes of the Washington Capitals.
Overall, the team was looking pretty bad as they were down 3-1 in the third period. However, the team came back and won in overtime.
Unfortunately, there was one moment in the game when fans felt like things were very dire.
For instance, Steven Lorentz scored a goal that was going to make the score 3-2. In the end, the goal was called back for a kicking motion off of his shin. The rule below explains it.
That said, the rule does note that it has to be off of a skate. There is nothing about shins mentioned in here.

As a result, Berube told reporters that he was very confused about the call.
Either way, none of this matters at the end of the day as the Leafs were able to pull out a huge win.
Having said that, the league does need to figure out video review, because there are a ton of inconsistencies that have not gotten much better over the years.
Only time will tell whether or not it is something that the league is even interested in cleaning up at this stage.
As for the Leafs, they have won four of their last five and now boast a record of 10-6-2. Saturday night, they will play the Edmonton Oilers.
