Seriously why is this an argument?

The difference between what you bolded and what I bolded is intent. If a player intentionally directs the puck then it isn't a goal. If there is no intent and it goes off the glove then it is a good goal.
The refs obviously thought the contact was intentional in this case. Had Lewis been looking the other way or the puck bounced off his glove as part of a positional battle in front of the net, then it would have been a good goal.
