High-stick non-call in Penguins-Rangers Game 3 looms large

NEW YORK -- This postseason has become the Stanley Cup playoffs of the review. The spring of breaking down the immediate past, frame by frame, to make sure the right outcomes are reached moving forward.

In Game 3 of the New York Rangers' first-round series against the Pittsburgh Penguins the Rangers had a first-period goal by Chris Kreider overturned because the play was offside. It was the right call -- just as every other overturned goal this postseason has been the right call regardless of how close the plays were.

It has been so for Chicago and the New York Islanders and even the Rangers who had a goal stand upon review in Game 2.
