The CRU didn't provide for an award of a score for a long period until after a certain Mr. Karpuk came off the bench to do similarly, when it was adopted.

At that time all they could penalize for it was half the distance and a 3-mins. power play. The accounts say it was a sure TD absent the foul, while film of the Lewis play argues for the likelihood of a legitimate tackle by a teammate had the foul not occurred.
