After deflecting a shot toward the corner, Peyton Jones meandered his way back to the net. The freshman netminder assumed the referee had already blown the play dead, as Jones was sure he redirected the puck over the glass and into the safety netting.

The official nearest him saw something else, however.

Play continued on as Jones and his teammates slowed up to reset for the next faceoff. At the same time, Princeton’s Ben Foster redirected a shot past Jones.

The referee pointed toward Penn State’s net, signalling a goal for the Tigers. A shocked Jones began gesturing first toward the official, then toward the netting in the corner to his left.
