Cooley stops 26, helps Flames recover for shootout win against Blues
Martin Pospisil appeared make it 2-0 at 12:43, but St. Louis successfully challenged for offside after video review determined Calgary defenseman Kevin Bahl did not hold the puck in the offensive zone.
The Blues then challenged a goal by Yegor Sharangovich at 17:23 for a missed stoppage in play. Video review determined that Zary had played the puck with a high stick, negating the goal.
“I think we’ve all been a part of a disallowed goal, but to have three straight, it was pretty nuts honestly,” Zary said. “I guess that’s on us. We’ve got to work on our onsides and high sticks.
“At the end of the day, you see two, you’re like, ‘This is crazy.’ You see three, you just have to laugh. It’s nice that we come out with a win, though.”
Holloway tied it 1-1 at 3:47 of the second period when he finished Snuggerud’s pass on a 2-on-1 with a snap shot from the left face-off circle that squeaked under Cooley’s left arm.
“‘Snuggy’ made a great pass over,” Holloway said. “To be honest, I thought I shot it in his chest and I was in the corner kind of swearing at myself, but I was lucky enough for it to go in.”
