So I'm pretty sure over the past 35+ years of watching hockey I've seen countless goals where the player tries to stop and puck goes off of the inside or outside of his skate as he stops which is obviously not a kicking motion.
For the posters who think this was a kicking motion can you even produce one or two clips similar to this call?
My goal is to show how 99% of the time this is called a goal and not even reviewed. Post it here to show what a joke that call was:
The craziest thing was that they called it a goal on the ice, so didn't that mean that the NHL control room overturned it?

I suggest we stop giving money to a league which is clearly trying to manipulate outcomes. I cancelled my nhl tv subscription, vote with your wallet folks!

Can NHL give one example showing where this was ever called a non goal?
I'm sure there have been other bad calls over the years... I mean this is the NHL after all.

The NHL should be viewed as somewhat superficial entertainment. It helps because you won't get frustrated with the fact that it is a second rate league.
Ultimately, kicking motion should still be a goal. If you can complete a pass with your skate, you can complete a goal with it as well. Not like kicking it in is some sort of advantage vs. using your stick.
Fock Toronto and the NHL
