Got a question on rule clarification, comments on rule enforcements or some memorable NHL stories? Kerry wants to answer your emails at cmonref@tsn.ca. Hey Kerry, Love the columns…When a goal is scored (Call on ice) and there is the possibility of interference on the Goaltender can the control center initiate a review of the play or would that have to be initiated by the Refs on the ice? The reason I ask if because it was pretty clear that on Ryan Getzlafs goal, Anaheims second goal that Tim Jackman made contact with Michael Hutchinsons head while he was in the crease. In reading rule 69 in reference to Goaltender Interference my interpretation would be that even with Jackman being outside of the crease, but contacting Hutchinson who was in the crease who was attempting to come out to the top of the crease to play the shot would and should constitute Goaltender Interference and would disallow the goal. I saw it pretty clearly after a single replay so why wouldnt this play have been reviewed by the Command Centre? Would love to hear your thoughts or interpretation. Sincerely, Chad -- Hi Kerry, Watching the Jets game on Saturday against Anaheim, I thought that Jackman clearly interfered with Hutchinson on the Ducks second goal. The referee on the ice didnt seem to think it was a penalty under rule 69, but I was wondering what your take of it was. Would you have called it? Thanks, Dave Chad and Dave: Your interpretation of Rule 69 is correct and Ryan Getzlafs goal should have been disallowed once Tim Jackman initiated contact with Jets goalkeeper Michael Hutchinson inside his crease area. Even though Jackmans skates were outside the goal crease, his right elbow intruded significantly inside the blue paint and made solid contact with Hutchinsons head as clearly demonstrated by the overhead still camera shot. The incidental, but illegal, contact by Jackman initiated inside the goal crease should have resulted in no goal and no penalty in violation of Rule 69. It is extremely difficult for the referee(s) to catch the precise moment and point of contact in real time. It is especially true on this play given the fact that Hutchinson was in motion pushing forward from inside his crease to outside the blue paint and that Jackmans skates at no time entered the goal crease. The Situation Room is not presently allowed to initiate video review to either allow or disallow a goal where there is any suspicion that Rule 69 has been violated. The call must be made on the ice by the referee closest to the net and/or if necessary through a conference of the on-ice officials prior to rendering a final decision. Most fans will probably agree that video review is badly needed to make accurate decisions on this very difficult call. For three seasons now I have lobbied that a monitor be placed in the penalty box for the referees to implement video review in an effort to make the correct decision. Through the use of video, the on-ice officials would then have the same advantage as the rest of the hockey world to review a potentially controversial goal. The referees want the ability and authority to utilize video review to make the correct ruling on potentially dirty goals. The fact that it took an overhead camera shot on this play to clearly demonstrate the presence of goal keeper interference is just one more example that a change is required. At the GM meetings this summer, Brian Burke and Bryan Murray teamed up to propose that a monitor be placed in the penalty box for the referees to utilize video review and make their final determination on potential Rule 69 violations. I am confident if the referee(s) assigned to work the Jet-Ducks game had the opportunity to take one look at the overhead camera shot, Ryan Getzlafs goal would have been disallowed. The game is won and lost with the scoring of goals. It is important to the integrity of the game to ensure they are scored legally. Air Max 97 Undefeated White For Sale .

The International Olympic Committee ruled Friday that Backstrom had not intended to enhance his performance, laying the blame for his positive test for pseudoephedrine on the Swedish team doctor. The Washington Capitals centre was suspended and pulled from the team just hours before the Feb. 23 gold-medal game, which Sweden lost 3-0 to Canada. The Swedes were outraged by the timing of the decision and said it affected the teams performance. The IOC defended the suspension, saying it was "fully justified" because of the positive test and noting that Backstrom conceded also taking the allergy medication on the day of the final. But the IOC ruled that the player should not be kicked out of the Sochi Games altogether, citing "mitigating circumstances." "There was no indication of any intent of the athlete to improve his performance by taking a prohibited substance," the IOCs three-person disciplinary commission said. "As a consequence, the athlete is entitled to receive the silver medal and diploma awarded in respect of the mens ice hockey event." Backstrom tested positive for excess levels of pseudoephedrine after Swedens win over Slovenia in the quarter-finals on Feb. 19. He said the stimulant was contained in "Zytec-D," a medication he had been taking for allergies. The IOC said the positive result in the "A" sample was confirmed on the morning of Feb.dddddddddddd 23. A hearing with Backstrom and Swedish team officials was quickly assembled. Among those attending was Bjorn Waldeback, the Swedish hockey team doctor and chief medical officer of the Swedish Olympic Committee. The IOC said Backstrom had "nothing to hide" and explained he had been taking the allergy medication regularly for seven years on the advice of a doctor and had never produced a positive test. He said he had taken the medication earlier that day. The IOC said Backstrom told the panel he knew the medication contained pseudoephedrine but relied on Waldebacks advice that the dosage would not trigger a positive test. Waldeback said he was "at fault" for that advice. Backstroms backup "B" sample was tested later on Feb. 23 and also came back positive. The IOC ruled that Backstrom committed an anti-doping violation by having the banned substance in his system. But the panel said he had been "open and co-operative," had disclosed the medication on his doping control form and had relied on Waldebacks advice. The IOC ruled that Waldeback "made a serious error" by telling Backstrom his use of the medication would not result in a positive test. If the doctor applies for Olympic accreditation in the future, the IOC should "seriously consider" his role in the case, the panel said. The IOC said the decision "should in no way" be seen as taking away from the responsibility of athletes to be vigilant and ensure that no prohibited substances enter their body.
