It worked. The clock didn't start.

UK GA - Goaltended FT

1.2 seconds to go in OT, team B down two, 1 FT remaining for team A. Team B out of timeouts. Coach B instructs player B5 to GT the final FT to prevent the clock from starting in case of a miss... Coach B thought he was choosing to give up 1 point in order to have 1.2 seconds on the clock....but didn't know that it was also a T.

Thanks Camron, now I remember. What a stupid thing to do.
