It's a great play anywhere else on the ice when the players are athletic enough to control the puck with skates, so why not allow it when it results in a goal?

It’s dangerous for a bunch of players to be kicking with knives on their feet. The rule is fine the way it is, though I think Gaudreau was turning his skate to get the angle to deflect it more than actually kicking it .
