GIO!!!!!!

[Randall Flagg]

That's no goal.

[qwksndmonster]

He kicked it, but Rask put it in the net.

[darksabre]

What even is a kicking motion anyway?

[bob_sauve28]

That's a good goal. It deflected

[qwksndmonster]

He was clearly trying to kick it to his stick instead of in the net. Or maybe he really was kicking it at the five hole (I doubt it).

[bob_sauve28]

He kicked it, but Rask put it in the net.

exactly

[Randall Flagg]

There's no way I can convince myself that looks like a good goal, even with my B&G glasses on.

[LGR4GM]

He kicks it into the goalie and it deflects in... how's that work?

[Huckleberry]

think it should count :p

I don't know that anyone on earth actually knows what the stupid rule is.  Toronto video bunker dwellers very much included.

[LGR4GM]

Why can't you kick it in?

[darksabre]

That's a call. He didn't kick it. He turned his foot.

[qwksndmonster]

Why can't you kick it in?

Goalie safety, I think.

[Brawndo]

Kicked DIRECTLY into the net?

[GoPre]

F Toronto

[Huckleberry]

you toronto

[WanderingEye]

He did kick it, but it hit the goalie first so is that really "directly" into the net?

[darksabre]

Kicked DIRECTLY into the net?

Right? Suuuuure Toronto. A**holes.

[GoPre]

He did kick it, but it hit the goalie first so is that really "directly" into the net?

And it wasn't kicked towards the goal.

 

F Toronto

[Sabel79]

Because it's possible to kick the puck so hard it takes a 90 degree turn all by itself.  Unbelievable. 

[Claude Balls]

Wtf is that buulshit?? Ref says puck was kicked directly into the net. Seriously??? What a joke.
