I had to watch that whole sequence where the LSSU player moved across
the slot, forced Snow down, deked the defenseman and then shot, using
frame advance on my VCR.  In real time I was sure it had to go in, and
even in slow speed I wasn't sure that it didn't, but in frame advance,
there was no time that the puck wasn't visible.  It was definitely a
correct call.  I think Jeff Jackson's comment was based on the awesome
move in the slot that led to a point-blank open net shot.  The shooter
was obviously going to go top shelf to avoid Snow, but just got a
little too much adrenaline into it.
