Flyers take lead, Pens goal disallowed

Arron Asham blasted a slap shot past Marc-Andre Fleury to give the Flyers a 1-0 lead in the second period and less than three minutes later the Pens thought they tied when Evgeni Malkin scored on a rebound.

Here’s the call from the Toronto war room: Video Review – Philadelphia vs. Pittsburgh – 8:26 of the second period Play was reviewed to determine if the puck had been kicked into the net by the Pittsburgh player … Review determined that the puck was propelled by a distinct kicking motion off Malkin’s skate and didn’t not touch any stick before entering the ice  – no goal.
