That circled Chicago Blackhawks player is Patrick Kane coming off the bench for a line change. Seconds later he did this:*


But the first goal of these playoffs for the Blackhawks star shouldn’t have counted, as Chicago muffed a line change and should have been called for too many men. Heck, even six guys were involved in the post-goal celebratory circle.
Via Eye on Hockey:
Peter Laviolette was obviously livid following the goal, but the call isn't reviewable and still won't be next season when the league likely implements a coach's challenge.*

Despite the controversial goal, the Predators came out on top 6-2 after scoring three times in a 2:19 span in the third period to send the series to Chicago even at one.
