Hitting the goalie in the crease is a penalty, has been all year. Red Wings have taken advantage of some weak refereeing in the past. the correct call was made last night.

2 things you are missing here, according to the actual league rule:
1) If the puck is loose in the crease you can go get it.
2) the player's momentum met with the goalie's momentum while the puck was loose in the crease.
Z made one swipe at the puck and then all hellll broke loose and bodies went everywhere.
It was a Hcrap call and everyone knows it! (except Pens fans and people up in Mystery Alaska )

(just kidding).
Either way...its Game 6 is on and this is turning out to be a good series after all.
