With the Devils down 3-1 with 6:11 left in the game, New Jersey goalie Mackenzie Blackwood was upended in the trapezoid as Colorado Avalanche forward Matt Calvert came around the net. The puck spit right out to Pierre-Edouard Bellemare, who hit the open net with ease, dropping the Devils with a 5-2 loss....

The Devils challenged Bellemare’s goal, saying Calvert interfered with Blackwood. But the contact was ruled incidental, with the officials saying it was initiated by Blackwood when he had his leg out to play the puck.

"They said it's not a penalty," interim coach Alain Nasreddine said. "The (goaltender interference) rule says that the player has to make a reasonable effort to avoid the goalie and we didn't think (Calvert) did so. That's the rule."
