A goalie cannot cross center ice during play because they are restricted to their designated area, primarily to maintain the integrity of their role and the flow of the game. This rule helps prevent goalies from interfering in offensive plays and ensures that they remain focused on defending their net. Additionally, if a goalie were to leave their area, they could risk penalties for actions like playing the puck outside the allowed zone.
