It was a very odd end to a game last night between the Chicago Blackhawks and Montreal Canadiens in the United Center. With the scored tied 2-2 they went to overtime, that's when Blackhawks Philipp Kurashev and Canadiens Mike Hoffman crashed into Canadiens goaltender Samuel Montembeault and knocked the net off. That's when things got crazy, the puck appears to go in, but the net was knocked off it's moorings.
Many thought maybe a Canadiens penalty or just blow the play dead like others we seen like this. However that didn't happen the referees reviewed the play. After a long delay they called it a goal, but then said it was going to be challenged for being offside, which even the commentary team said "looks offside this one won't count."
The Canadiens we're obviously unhappy with this ending, who can't seem to find a win and are now dead last in the entire NHL with a 7-24-5 record. There last win was December 16th 2021 a 3-2 shoot-out win vs the Philadelphia Flyers.
