After reviewing all available replays and consulting with the Referee, the Situation Room confirmed that the position of Chicago's Kane did not by itself impact Lundqvist's ability to play his position in the crease and therefore no goaltender interference infractions occurred. The decision was made in accordance with Rule 69.7 which states, in part, that the goal on the ice should have been allowed because "in a rebound situation, or where a goalkeeper and attacking player(s) are simultaneously attempting to play a loose puck, whether inside or outside the crease, incidental contact will be permitted, and any goal that is scored as a result thereof will be allowed."
Therefore the original call stands - good goal Chicago Blackhawks.
Since the Coach's Challenge did not result in the original call being overturned, the New York Rangers forfeit their time-out.
