Stars Beat Jets On \'Controversial\' Goal To Take 2-1 Series Lead 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon May 12, 2025 5:01 am

Winnipeg Jets coach Scott Arniel believes the game-winning goal should not have counted in their 5-2 loss to the Dallas Stars in Game 3 on Sunday night that put them down 2-1 in their Western Conference playoff series.

\"That is no goal,\" Arniel said.

It took eight minutes for the on-ice officials and the NHL Situation Room to allow Dallas defenseman Alexander Petrovic\'s third-period tiebreaking goal, which he directed toward the net with his skate. Referee Graham Skilliter announced that \"after video review, the Winnipeg goalie puts the puck into his own net after a kick\" and that it was a \"good goal.\"
