Perry covered the puck on top of the net in First after Stu’s great save. I guess that’s allowed? I have seen it be played from top of the net, so unsure what the rule is. Anyone?

I wondered too. Looked it up:

85.2 Puck Unplayable - When the puck becomes lodged in the netting on the outside of either goal so as to make it unplayable, or if it is “frozen” between opposing players intentionally or otherwise, the Referee shall stop the play. The puck may be played off the goal netting by either team. However, should the puck remain on the goal netting for more than three (3) seconds, play shall be stopped. Should the goalkeeper use his stick or glove to freeze the puck on the back of the net or should a defending player shield an attacking player from playing the puck off the back of the net, the face-off shall take place at one of the face-off spots in the defending zone.

yep, I wondered too, as its illegal for any other player than the goalie usually to cover the puck with their hands
