if it was an unsportsmanlike penalty why didn’t the refs arm go up as soon as pronger motioned his arm?! the ref decides to waive it off after the goal was scored. piece of shit refs. bunch of assholes. would the call of been made if the shot went wide? i highly doubt it. flyers win period.

The rule is when your turned around facing the goalie and doing stuff like Avery did, you can see the reason mikka didnt make the save was because a hit pronger in the back of the leg with his stick. This was just a horrible call.

Pronger interfered by blocking the G with his hand. It doesn’t matter if you are facing the G or not. Typical Pronger bullshit. Bigg Buff knocked him on his ass last year and took him off his game.

I’m not gonna pretend I’ve read the official NHL rule book or anything, but my interpretation of the “Avery Rule” is that you can only screen a goalie by establishing body position in front of their crease, using your body to do it, not with your stick or your hands. If someone does happen to have the rule handy I’d like to read it.
