Nutty finish on the Island.

Pens come back to tie the game in the 3rd. Scoreless through OT.

After 2 shooters per side, Pens lead shootout 1-0. Trent Hunter shooting for NY. The puck gets lost inside Dany Sabourin's pad, between his leg and the pad. About 90% of Sabourin's body slides back into the net. He reaches his hand down past his calf and retrieves the puck. Called no goal on the ice....reviewed...and upheld.

Just very odd. I guess had his leg completely crossed the goal line, they could have called it a goal. But not knowing where the puck was when he slides back into the net, there is no evidence whether or not the puck crossed the line.
