Another night, another goalie interference controversy. The latest involving the St. Louis Blues and the Boston Bruins Thursday night.

Blues netminder Jake Allen was driven out of the crease (and off the camera) by Jake DeBrusk and Ryan Spooner, allowing David Krejci to score what was probably the easiest goal of his career.

The explanation as to why the goal counted was that Allen didn't fight his way back into position, and therefore could not have made the save, according to The Athletic's Jeremy Rutherford.

Blues general manager Doug Armstrong did not like it one bit.

"Well that's a new one to me," he told Rutherford postgame. "Now all of (a) sudden (the referee) is clairvoyant. There are great saves in our game for a reason because goalies do things they're not supposed to do.

"For the referee to feel that he's the judge and jury on who can make a great save, who's athletic enough ... again that's a new area I didn't realize was part of his job description."

Armstrong, like so many others, is clearly frustrated with the gray area in which goalie interference calls are made. He failed to offer much of a solution when asked how the league can fix the issue.

"I don't think they know, I don't think we know. I don't think anyone knows now because this cat is out of the bag," he said.
