Blue Jackets GM Scott Howson, who was not at the game, said in his blog that he had talked to the NHL's Colin Campbell twice after the game. Wrote Howson:

"Sometimes in watching the game on television there can be confusion with respect to the game clock. Some television broadcasts use their own game clock that is not official with the rink. However, and after double checking, Colin confirmed that we were actually seeing the official game clock stop for one full second. Therefore, when you do the math, Drew Doughty actually scored 0.4 seconds after time had expired, which means the goal should have been disallowed and should have gone to overtime. Colin has promised me that the NHL will investigate this to try and figure out how this happened."

Frozen clock may have let L.A. Kings win in final second
