by the rule book, by anything, just so clearly a garbage call.

Backstrom was shoved into the goalie, and the goalie grabbed Backstrom to maintain contact. And Backstrom barely touched the goalie and quite clearly didn't affect the (non) save.

Such garbage.

It''s idiotic that a ref goes over to the booth and reviews his own call. There's nearly no incentive to tell the hockey world you just dicked a call.
