    I would guess that in hockey, there would be no shot credited, because the defender clearing it would be considered to have blocked the shot.

    Thanks, Sandoval, I did not find the NCAA reference.

    No problem. For some reason, the NCAA puts a lot of stuff in the stats manuals for each sport that they don't include in the rule books. I have no freaking idea why it can't all be in the same book. I guess we all know by now that you can't apply logic to anything the NCAA does.

    As said earlier, it's a team save, not credited to a particular player. The same scenario happened in a NCAA match I was covering the other day.
