The NHL is a garbage league when it comes to rules and consistency, its a broken product. First of all the rule makes no sense anyways, just disallow any goals that are put in with a skate and be done with it. But if you have a rule that says "distinct kicking motion" and you always allow the type of goal where a guy isn't lifting and waving his skate at the puck...where do you get off disallowing it in a crucial playoff game? The NHL needs an officiating task force to clean up this nonsense. Absolute trash.
