Hope you are well ro!

Actually I think there are more Canucks on the Oils roster and well Weight is like three 'Merikans to a real Oilers fan. But then I'm sure you knew that!

Don't they have an official behind the goal to signal that it is a goal?

Yes they do and they also have video goal judges.

But all that is mute if the ref loses sight of the puck, he is required to blow his whistle immediately and stop the play.

It doesn't matter if the puck ends up in the net or not, the play is dead as soon as the ref blows the whistle.
