This goaltending is definitely a case of lead saving Trail & Center's butts if he happened to see it. I've had people tell me to never call goaltending/BI in lead but in extreme cases that is not the case. As your assigner will say "Get it right"

If the lead is doing his job, he wouldn't see the goaltend. He's watching rebounding action and that one is too close to call on "peripheral vision."
The C needed to get that GT or get skewered, which he did.
Why did the C signal a 3-point attempt? That was clearly in the T's area.
