from Don Brennan of the Ottawa Sun,
Inconclusive replays of the close in shot taken by Pageau and the scramble that followed in the last second of regulation time wiped out any hope the Senators had of at least getting into OT, and picking up one all important point.
“My blade was in the net, his glove was in the net, his pad was in the net,” said Pageau. “So there was a lot of stuff to cover the puck. There was no call on the ice.
“It’s probably the angle of camera they had. It’s not like was an early whistle or anything. Maybe the ref was on the wrong side of the net. He was just trying to do his best. But I’m pretty sure that puck crossed the line, so it’s unfortunate for us.”
Winnipeg Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck adamantly stated the right decision was made.
"That was guaranteed out,” he said. “My pad was there and he pushed my pad in, and I got my glove right behind it.
“I’m kind of confused as to why the crowd was getting into it.”
