This whole scene was hilarious to me, especially when it was live. The goal, the ref, the crowd, the horn, and especially the Washington players reacting to scoring on themselves
As a Caps fan, this was embarrassing. But seeing the Ref just standing there waiting for the Horn to end was HILARIOUS! It reminds me of when a similar thing happened in Vegas a few years back.
Well, it ended up costing the Caps the game, literally. The only goal the Wild scored on their own was in the last minute when they were on a 6-5 scenario. Also, this has to be the first time in history a team’s two goals came from a 6-5 and 5-6 scenario.
I was at this game. It was easily the most entertaining game I’ve ever been too. This goal was crazy and everyone around me couldn’t believe it, they went into overtime and shootout and won. Also there was a person dressed as Waldo there and I got a picture.
As a Wild fan I was laughing and confused still when referring came up I'm like shit they are gonna a deny the goal... then Wild beat them in a shoot out. Wild are down I think 9 great players one being Kaprizov but this shows they got this (with a little laugh too lol)
The way that the Caps' power play has been, they would've been better off doing like the NFL and declining the penalty. And I say this as a Caps fan. Our power play blows so hard.
Nah, I'd say Kuzy's breakaway series ending goal against the penguins on their home ice a couple years ago was one of the best goals the Caps have scored. The perfect leading touch pass from Ovi really made it a wonderful play all around. I also would put any of the greatest goal scorer of all time's (Ovechkin) goals above this one. I do have to admit this own goal was pretty damn funny though.

I always wanted to see if something like this could happen, not necessarily performed by my favorite team but it's still entertaining nonetheless.
Bobby Orr once scored into his own net. The very loud reaction from one member of the crowd? "Cheevers should have had it." One of Don Cherry's favorite Orr stories.
One of the worst goals ever. It’s happened plenty of times before, with players such as Patrick Kane, Steven Stamkos, Loui Eriksson, and Dennis Wideman doing the exact same thing.
Ummm it's common have u even played hockey everybody who has played a decent bit of hockey as had this happen to them dosent even have to be organized games or anything ... this is common asf
I was at this game, and the entire time I'm telling myself the wild have nochance to win as they are playing with basicaly a minor league roster. then this happens and after i stop laughing I'm like- unless...
I initially thought it was about the ref's stuffing up AGAIN. But it's the best worst goal in sometime, the priceless look on the refs face and the end result after OT. I feel like this could be the moment to remember for this season. I hope something else happens to shock me 😳😯😲🤯
Minnesota had a delayed penalty so, the play would’ve been called dead by the refs as soon as an MN player touched the puck. Teams will pull their goalie to get an extra attacker on the ice for as long as they can hold possession of the puck with a delayed penalty because it’s essentially extra power play time. Hope that helps explain why he wasn’t in net!
Well it used to be the play would be blown dead once the team that took the penalty touched the puck. Now it's once they control the puck. So if it's just a touch or deflection the play is not dead. They actually have to control/possess the puck now before the play is blown dead.
Clickbait. The home team doesn't "troll" the referee when he calls a good goal for them. This was simply a horn guy not realizing the announcement wasn't over yet because of the penalty call.
The goal was actually good because at no point did the team with the penalty that scored had complete control of the puck, It was poke chacked at best into the net
Not aj easy job refereeing for you. I look up to all hockey refs. The man has only a fraction of a second to see from a tough angle and decide on any issue Yes or No, where fans and commentators have the comfort a few slow motion repetitions from various angles to see for themselves and judge the judge. The horn - I know it's supposed to be negative, but it shouldn't embarrass the ref, cause the fans will always be the negative and biased smart turds.
I’m just saying, I think this goal was not the worst goal in NHL history, it actually happens kinda rarely, so I would say it was a pretty good goal. But I’m also a wild fan so….
