[QUOTE="El Guapo, post: 1060287, member: 5830"] As for the penalty itself, even the ESPNU announcers felt that she didn't grip the puck and that it went "fluidly" under her body. If we were watching a football game, would you say that there was "indisputable visual evidence" that Maddi Wheeler closed her hand around the puck? You couldn't credibly do so. [B][I]Rule 618 (a)[/I][/B][I] A penalty shot/optional minor penalty shall be awarded to the non-offending team anytime a defending player, other than the goalkeeper, [B][U]picks the puck up off the ice with his hand or holds the puck[/U][/B] while play is in progress and the puck is in the goal crease.[/I] As for whether or not the penalty shot was legal: [B][I]Rule 406 (c) [/I][/B][I]A “Penalty Shot” shall be taken as follows: The puck shall be placed on the center ice face-off spot and on the instruction of the Referee, the player taking the shot will play the puck from there and attempt to score on the goalkeeper.
