Red Wings Get Robbed - Early Whistle - Ducks Red Wings Game 3 - May 5 09

The referee Brad Watson blows the whistle while the puck is still free in Jonas Hiller's crease, and Hossa puts it in the net but the goal is waived off as the whistle had gone (or the referee intends to blow the whistle) before the puck went in.

@popdropshake the referee lost sight of the puck, and when the referee THINKS about blowing the whistle, is when the play is done, not when the whistle is blown

[RockinSkater078]

I'm not a fan of either teams but I'm pretty sure the puck went in before the whistle blow!

[popdropshake]

could someone explain this to me if it was already in the net before he blew the whistle why isnt it a goal?

[GanjMahal]

@zinchukk nah, I think I'll keep complaining about it. whoever said time heals all wounds just didn't know how to hold a grudge.
