Lehkonen soccer goal – was this a deliberate kicking motion? Tough Call Review
Artturi Lehkonen kicked home the opening goal of the series while being taken down driving the net. Was he trying to kick the puck or trying to save himself from a leg injury?
I don't think Lehkonen or anyone else in that situation has enough control to "deliberately" kick the puck. I also think that he probably doesn't even know exactly where the puck is as he's falling. Good call.

definite kick, the fact the kicking leg goes much higher than it would have normally (see his other leg).
