I watched the Wisconsin Public Television replay later... and the UW
announcers at first also thought the goal was going to count, and then
concluded that a delayed penalty must have been on Minnesota. If one
cares to guess what was going on, the replay showed a Minnesota player
(one who did get a penalty) hitting Elick before he cross-checked in
retaliation, which (together) more or less started everything in front
of the net.
And now for my rule book trivia question of the night: if a player
loses his stick, can a teammate pick it up (and return it) while
holding his own stick? I don't know the rule, but it would seem
to me that a player should have at most one stick at a time.
