I thought the rule is that it can't be a goal if the puck is INTENTIONALLY kicked in the direction of the net? Not if the puck is kicked in general, and deflected into the net.
The latter is okay. If you don't allow that, then you can't do kick passes or anything else of the manner also then. The video couldn't prove it was a deliberate deflection to the net, so it being a good goal is the right call.
