Rule Clarification: SJS @ MIN - 10:01 of the Third Period

At 10:01 of the third period in the Sharks/Wild game, the Referee informed the Situation Room that Minnesota requested a Coach's Challenge to review whether San Jose was off-side during the original play which led to Logan Couture's penalty shot.

The Situation Room confirmed that the play could not be subject to a Coach's Challenge. The decision was made in accordance with Rule 78.7 which states, in part, that "a team may only request a Coach's Challenge to review a play that results in a "GOAL" call on the ice where the defending team asserts that the play should have been stopped by reason of an "Off-side" infraction by the attacking team."The original play did not result in a "GOAL" call on the ice and, therefore, cannot be subject to Coach's Challenge.
