You're the goalie of a team in the Stanley Cup finals - Game 7 - overtime. There's a scramble in front of your net, bodies all over, the puck bouncing around. You watch as the puck slides ever-so-slightly-but-completely over the line, a goal that loses the Cup for your team. However, in the split second it happens you know that no one else has seen it, it happend so fast that the ref hasn't had time to decide if he can see the puck and/or should blow the whistle. In other words, you are the only person who knows. Do you:
-- Accept that the other team won, fair and square.
-- In that split second, swipe the puck back over the line.
Now, let's not get into an argument about whether or not you would have time to do that, whether the ref would have blown the whistle, whether there would be a reply to see the goal, etc. Let's just assume that this is one of those rare instances when those would not be a factor - and it's a split fraction of a second. What would you do?
