Holy ######, I'm still going to be able to go to bed early, but not for the reason I had thought.  The game's not boring; it's been taken over by the Lightning.

Spoke too soon. Lightning Fast respond by the Rangers.

That's what I'm thinking. What if it isn't illegal? They would have had to check the rulebook in Toronto, right?

 

I looked. There is nothing.

Sorry - found it. It's illegal.

78.5 Disallowed Goals – Apparent goals shall be disallowed by the Referee and the appropriate announcement made by the Public Address Announcer for the following reasons: (i) When the puck has been directed, batted or thrown into the net by an attacking player other than with a stick.

horseshit. if that rule was fully enforced pucks off skates would not be counted still.


NHL made a on the fly judgement call and I think it was wrong.

Is a puck off of a skate "directed, batted, or thrown," considering that the standard for a puck "directed" off of a skate is a "distinct kicking motion"?
