The RPI players started celebrating, the referee started to signal no goal but the goal judge turned on the red light. The ref and two assistant referees retired to the sideline to discuss the situation and then the referee asked the goal judge to come down to the ice to discuss things.  After all that, the referee skated to the scorer's table, then the RPI bench and then the Cornell bench at which point the faceoff was moved outside the Cornell zone and no goal was posted on the scoreboard.  There was never any announcement made.  I'd like to be righteously indignant about this one but honestly, I never saw the puck so I have no idea whether it went in after the whistle or whether it ever crossed the goal line.

Not to fan the flames on this one, but there's a posting on the Cornell forum from a Cornell fan who looked at a video clip, and he said it looked like the puck did go in.  I'm going to guess it was a quick whistle by referee Fulton, since he started to wave the goal off before having the discussion.

David LeNeveu was a "surprise" starter for the Big Red (the real ones), as Matt Underhill was supposed to start but took a "hard shot" during warmups and spent the game on the bench.  No word yet on the severity of Underhill's injury.
