Spencer Carbery frustrated by non-call for puck over glass against Bruins: 'There's four sets of eyeballs on the ice. Someone has to see that.'

"I went over this this summer, because this happened to us last year. So if you remember, they put a rule in place for it to be challengeable and I asked a specific question of, 'Just call the penalty. Let the Boston Bruins challenge it.' But they say they need to be certain that it was a delay of game."

"My only issue with that is there's four sets of eyeballs on the ice. Someone has to see that that goes straight out there. And they didn't. So their argument is, 'We can't just call it and then expect Boston to challenge it. We have to have seen it.' And that's where it's frustrating and unfortunate, that four guys don't see that go out."

"Which is frustrating, because it's clear as day. I saw the broadcast was doing a bunch of replays on it, and it just it rolled up on them and goes straight out. And that puts us in a five-on-three. You would expect to score in that scenario."

The Washington Capitals fell to the Boston Bruins 3-2 in a shootout, their second loss to Boston in eight days. Late in regulation with the score tied and the Capitals already holding a one-man advantage, Mark Kastelic shot the puck over the glass from the Bruins' defensive zone. The Capitals argued this should result in a delay-of-game penalty, creating a five-on-three advantage with 54 seconds remaining. Head coach Spencer Carbery expressed frustration that all four on-ice officials failed to see the puck go directly out of play, preventing them from calling the penalty. Carbery noted the rule allows for challenges but requires officials to first witness the infraction with certainty before calling it.
