At 1:59 of the third period in the Islanders/Panthers game, New York requested a Coach’s Challenge to review whether Florida was off-side before the puck entered the net.

After reviewing all available replays and consulting with NHL Hockey Operations staff, the Linesmen were inconclusive in determining whether the Panthers were off-side prior to the goal. According to Rule 78.7, "if a review is not conclusive and/or there is any doubt whatsoever as to whether the call on the ice was correct, the On-Ice Official(s) will be instructed to confirm their original call."

Therefore the original call stands – good goal Florida Panthers.

Since the Coach’s Challenge did not result in the original call being overturned, the NY Islanders forfeit their time-out.
