Watch as Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury loses his glove during the middle of a penalty-kill after contact with Winnipeg Jets forward Blake Wheeler, and Kyle Connor takes full advantage by firing the puck past Fleury for a goal.

How is this not interfƩrence??? God this league.
Jets fan here that shouldnāt have been a goal
Flury was trying to get a whistle to stop play, stuck his own hand in there and let it get pulled off the ref wasn't buying the crap and let play go on the defender has every rite to his space and flury was interfering with him. Good no call and I have no skin in this game!
This needs to be a stoppage by officialā¦ā¦ no glove? Come on
To be clear, there is no rule to stop play if a goalie takes off their glove/blocker – only their helmet applies.
Don't get it – why is the play dead when they lose a mask but not a glove?
Maybe Fleury shouldn't have stuck his glove out to impede Wheeler from coming in front of the net.
Should've been a penalty on WPG for interference. Some of these rules/non-rules are so insane to me
Ref needs to be fired. If a goalie breaks a hand bc play isnāt stopped thatās a huge lawsuit against the NHL
NHL Officiating has gone way downhill the last 5 or so seasons. Wheeler chicken-wing's MAF's Glove, all good SMH. Also King should have challenged that Goal for Goalie Interference.
Hhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Why is the play not whistle dead by rule if your goalie equipment comes off the play is supposed to be stop what are the referees looking at I can't stand incompetent referees
FLUERY GOT TRADED TO MINNESOTA WILD!!!!!
Imagine Demko was scored on during the Rangers game earlier in the season while having a blocker off
That was wild .
Can someone please explain how the unelected fake catholic pres got 81 million votes
That shouldn't be a goal lmao
He was actually waving goodbye to Chicago š
"…after having glove illegally taken off by Winnipeg player" – There. fixed it.
Kinda weird that players are required to return to bench immediately after losing any equipment minus the stick while the play is still on when a goalie loses his glove. Doesn't seem to be safe.
Now that he is here, glad he didn't try to make the save, we need him for the run
That's a tough one. Fleury initiated contact, and wheeler was out of the crease, but wheeler clearly clamped his elbow on it, he knew what he was doing there. Either way, it should be a whistle.
No goal
Not only that the play should have been stopped, this should have been a penalty on the Jets. Typical BS refereeing in NHL.
So they traded him. Big improvement for Fleury
I was at this game, and I actually didnāt even realize that the glove can off, as I was sitting behind the goal in the 300 level. I thought that was a weak one for Fleury to let inā¦
Good call reffs,you can see the goalie put him hand in Blake's wheelers arm. And you can hear the Reff tell the other team they need to touch the park first. He saw his intentionally put his glove in Blake's arm while Blake was moving around to the front to screen the puck. For once they followed the rule book. They use to play with like none to little equipment LOL
Wonder if Minnesota still would've traded for him with a broken hand. I respect the need to protect your goal but that's DUMB trying to block a shot bare handed.
I love how he still had his hand up, though.
What a champ! š¤©
This shouldn't have been a goal. How stupid
The wave Was the best
Linesman to ref "Watch out for the goalie inteference"
Referee "What goalie"?
How can that even count as a goal?
