]My point is that if they don't call the hook in OT that they called in the first then there's enough discretion available not to call Bernier there especially when the Habs already had a four on three in the OT.

There really isn't. Like the over the glass DOG it's a pretty simple yes or no rule. Flip teams in this situation and I don't think anyone here would be advocating that the Refs should stop calling blatant penalties because the Leafs had already had a PP.

I agree.  I think there was cause for the refs to be lenient with Bernier, but he left them no opportunity.  It was a clear-cut penalty.

You never really see it called especially with an opposing player so close.  Never seen it in OT either.  Oh well.

I can't even remember the last time a play like that happened, so that's probably why you don't see it called.  More often you see the puck come down the ice and the goalie cover it a step or two outside of the crease, and not in a 'race for the puck' scenario like this one was.
