Don't have to add the times I have seen it. I love this. Good to come home to a good laugh.

Were they both in the same section? I forget which two teams were involved. Something happened where it was late in the game, and I think an Eastview player thought he heard a whistle, and out of frustration shot the puck on his own net. The goalie not expecting it or not paying attention or whatever, let the puck in. However there was no whistle and it counted for a goal, and as a result, the team ended up losing by 1. Or maybe 2 because that gave up any momentum the team had and they got scored on again. Does anyone remember this or have more detail about it?
It was a senior. The whistle came from the Eastview crowd - I heard it myself. The whole game was ugly - Eastview fans taunting an AHA player personally the entire timeDubCHAGuy wrote:Mr. McTabish wrote:Funny someone should post this topic, I was just thinking about this.

It was Holy Angels v. Eastview in 2001 sections. It was the AHA defenseman who shot it into his own net. Eastview went on to win the game 4-3 and eventually won consalation at state. Can't remember who shot it in for AHA, hopefully an underclassmen who then played on their championship team in 2002 to make up for it.
Was that the Edina Wayzata game?mnreferee1 wrote:In my sons Highschool game last year a delayed penalty was called and the goalie started for the bench. A forward passed the puck back to the defenseman who missed the pass and the puck went all the way the length of the ice into the empty net.
actually, there was a whistle, although not by the ref. All the players heard it and stopped play, and this player took a practice shot while everyone was skating off to change lines.Fangler wrote:what a loser who would score on their own goalie.

I was watching that game.Lopresti wrote:In the NHL, Steve Smith of the Edmonton Oilers tried passing one from behind the net but banked it in off Grant Fuhr's leg. It was the winning goal in game 7 of the playoffs against Calgary in 1986. He was bawling after the game.
That goal didn't count because Giles went nuts and claimed Connor Gaarder hit a Wayzata player when he made the pass.highschoolhockeyfann wrote:Was that the Edina Wayzata game?mnreferee1 wrote:In my sons Highschool game last year a delayed penalty was called and the goalie started for the bench.

I remember that very much, but it ended up not counting for some reason.
Wayzata won anyway.
I agree with this kid mom. What he's saying is why would you shoot at your own goal even in practice. Just something you don't do.starmom wrote:actually, there was a whistle, although not by the ref.

The refs called it an "own goal", even though it was obvious to everyone what had happened
This is true. I also saw a Centennial player score on his own goalie at the DECC this year.EREmpireStrikesBack wrote:boblee has scored on himself many times.
