Explanation: Video review confirmed New Jersey's Nathan Bastian had a significant presence in the crease which impaired Matt Murray's ability to play his position. The decision was made in accordance with Rule 69.1 which states, in part,"Goals should be disallowed only if: (1) an attacking player, either by his positioning or by contact, impairs the goalkeeper's ability to move freely within his crease or defend his goal."
