NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman expressed strong support for the ruling that upheld the Anaheim Ducks' overtime goal by Ryan Poehling in their playoff match against the Edmonton Oilers. Bettman stated, 'It wasn't a controversy, it was absolutely the right call,' emphasizing the reliability of the technology used to confirm the goal. The Ducks secured a 4-3 victory, putting them ahead 3-1 in the series, with a chance to clinch in Game 5. Bettman acknowledged the scrutiny surrounding the goal, which was reviewed due to uncertainty about whether the puck fully crossed the line. Despite Oilers coach Kris Knoblauch's skepticism regarding the goal's validity, Bettman mentioned that the NHL is testing new technologies to enhance goal verification processes, although he did not disclose specific details or timelines for implementation.
