I thought you could direct the puck in as long as it is not a distinct kicking motion. 

 

Guess not.

 

According to Rule 78.5 (i) "Apparent goals shall be disallowed when the puck has been directed, batted or thrown into the net by an attacking player other than with a stick." No goal Chicago."

 

Then again, how is ANA first goal legal under 78.5? That was directed in with other than a stick. Cogliano used his skate to direct the puck*. 

 

Something seems not right in what is and isn't allowed. 

 

 

*Yes, it then hit a CHI defender in the leg. 

The puck went off a Chicago player after Cogliano directed it. I think it was Bickels leg.

I agree. I'm a huge Wings fan, but $6+ million per year is insane. Jeff Blashill will be the next coach of the Wings. If Babcock can do anything with the dysfunctional Leafs, maybe he's worth it, but I don't expect that he will turn around those sorry losers.

I'm a HUGE Red Wings fans as well and am with you on this. Ken Holland has put the team together year after year and done a great job trying to rebuild it. Babcock is a great coach, but not worth that kind of money.
