WATCH ⟩ Hanging up after a full schedule: A fun goal in an NHL game

“Canadiens” goalkeeper Sam Montembo took the puck after a strong shot by the opponent and it seemed to everyone present that he would not bring it back into the game, but would wait for the referee’s whistle and then shoot.

While most lost their vigilance, Montembo put the puck in play before the referee could signal that play should be stopped. “Canadiens” defender Jonathan Kovačević used it in a flash, which sent the puck across the field and scored a goal.

The hockey players of the opposing team, Tampa Bay Lightning, were confused, especially goalie Andrejs Vasilevskis, who was sure that there would be a short break and he would have the opportunity to rest a bit, so he skated out of the goal .

The referees of the match also seemed confused, but after watching the video replay, they made sure that everything was correct: the referee’s whistle had not yet sounded, so the “Canadiens” could continue the game and the goal had to be counted .

However, the “Canadiens” could not win this match, as they lost away from home with the result 3:4 (0:0, 2:2, 1:2). Nikita Kucherov, the most productive player of the NHL season, stood out for “Lightning” with a goal and an assist.
