Video Review: Anaheim at Detroit - 14:00 of the first period
05.03.2009 / 02:38 PM ET
Video Review -Anaheim at Detroit, 14:00 of 1st period - Hockey Operations used video review to determine if Detroit player Stuart used a distinct kicking motion (the fact that the puck bounced off Anaheim defenseman Wisniewski before going in the net is not a factor - Rule 49.2 states “A kicked puck that deflects off the body of any player of either team shall be ruled no goal"). The decision of Hockey Ops was that Stuart did not use a distinct kicking motion - Good goal.

I think that rule needs to be looked at. Even if you argue that it WAS a kicking motion, it wasn’t directed towards the net.
Theoretically, if Chris Osgood had kicked the puck all the way down the ice and it ricocheted off 3 Ducks players’ skates and went in, it wouldn’t count?
