Minnesota Wild goaltender Cam Talbot is happy with the officials' decision to overturn a goal against him in the third period of a 3-0 win over the Vegas Golden Knights.

"If that one stood, I probably wouldn't be here right now," Talbot said postgame, according to The Athletic's Michael Russo. "I probably would just be getting fined."

With the Wild up 1-0, Vegas appeared to get the equalizer past Talbot with around half of the third period still to play. The goal was quickly waved off due to goaltender interference, with Alex Tuch standing in the crease.

The Golden Knights challenged the ruling and lost, and were handed a two-minute delay of game penalty as a result. Kevin Fiala scored on the ensuing power play to put Minnesota up 2-0 before Nick Bjugstad potted Minnesota's third marker to seal the contest.

Head coach Dean Evason noted that his team was on the other end of similar calls earlier in the series.

"What comes around goes around," Evason said.

He added: "You want consistency, and they gave it to us."

Minnesota entered Game 6 trailing 3-2 in the series. Game 7 is set for 9 p.m. ET on Friday night.
