The Buffalo Sabres got off to a brilliant start on Tuesday night in Montreal against the Canadiens.
They got the benefit of an overturned goal that gave them a 2-0 lead midway through the first period, and it involved multiple reviews -- well, until a second review took it back away.
So after eight minutes, it was 1-0, but it certainly could've been 2-0.
First, the play wasn't called a goal on the ice. Jack Quinn tried to shove the puck in on a rebound but it went into Jakub Dobes' glove.
The replay center asked for a review, and it was eventually ruled that the puck crossed the line for a good goal.
The Canadiens then challenged the call for goaltender interference, so there was another review.
That decided that there was interference, taking the goal back away.
