Uh no he didn't he has skating towards the goal and it hit his skate there is a diff between an accidental deflection and a purposeful kick.

God, I hate when people start things with "uh no." No need to be condescending, especially when your homerific glasses are distracting your ability to see clearly.

The puck didn't just glance off his foot. His foot moved to where the puck was going. And it wasn't in the direction his foot would've been going if he were just skating. It was disallowed for a reason.. but I suppose you're the expert.

Goals have been disallowed for less, and the NHL has been calling them like this for a while.

Howard is so inconsistent if he was good like a playoff goalie should be every game the Wings would have finished off Phoenix pretty quick, and I think this series would be tied. In the end when the Wings get knocked out it will probably be because of Howard.

Sorry about that but there is still nothing illegal about moving your foot in front of the puck. They do it all the time to attempt to handle a bad pass. What is illegal is kicking it towards the goal I saw none of that. It's just a deflection not a kicking motion.

meh, he hasn't been bad at all. giving a team like the sharks a bunch of pp opportunities is a recipe for disaster, no matter who your goalie is. sure, he hasn't been spectacular, but honestly, given the kind of talent around him, he shouldn't have to be. the rest of the team has hung him out to dry at times in these playoffs.
