Should Pucks Off The Netting Be Reviewable?

from Darren Dreger of TSN,

Now pucks going off netting is not subject to video review, but a surprisingly high number of general managers believe they should be.

Of the 21 general managers who responded to the question asking whether video review should be used to determine whether the puck has come in contact with the netting prior to a goal being scored, 11 voted in favour of a review.

I agree with what Bob McKenzie said tonight on TSN, play to the whistle.  I don’t think there is a need to review this type of situation.  Besides, what happens when this occurs..

Last year, the Wings turned a puck into the netting in their own zone into a goal on the other end.  So how far back does the review go, when it clears the defensive zone or next whistle?

Heck, why not have the goal judge watch for it, most are sitting up high enough to see it better than the on-ice officials!
