The NHL's goalie-interference review system is facing significant criticism following a controversial no-goal call during a recent game on Friday where the Stars won in double overtime to advance. The overturned goal by Mason Marchment has reignited debates about the inconsistencies and inefficacies of the review process. Critics argue that the current system, which often involves subjective calls and detailed freeze-frame analysis, disrupts the flow of the game and fails to deliver consistent results. There are growing calls within the hockey community to either reform or completely eliminate the replay review system for interference and offside calls.
I’m generally fine with replay in sports but the NHL should absolutely get rid of the offside & goalie interference reviews https://t.co/TVeCKcZXfI
Replay review in the NHL hasn't worked. It's turned a fast game into one where we nitpick over millimeters and argue over freeze-frames of subjective calls. Nobody is any happier, and nobody thinks we're getting it right. It's time to scrap it entirely. https://t.co/VUWbmj4FAi
Let’s fix the replay system, in the best and simplest way that we could: By getting rid of it. @DownGoesBrown advocates for taking away replay review for interference or offside. https://t.co/jfqeo3EyfG https://t.co/NQuuOKd6nr

The NHL has a goalie-interference review problem. And it needs to be fixed. @hayyyshayyy explains how an incorrectly called no-goal on Friday provided another reason for the league to address its review problem ⤵️ https://t.co/qyNblpILhL
The Stars won in double overtime to advance, so in theory Mason Marchment's overturned goal doesn't matter that much. Except it does for different reasons. On goalie interference and its inconsistencies that are consistently an issue. https://t.co/xm0vPIV0wT
