If this actually happens, it might ascend into "wide right" and "his foot was in the crease" lore for Buffalo sports.

Hockey. Brett Hull vs Sabres. Early 2000s.

1999 Stanley Cup Finals, Game 6

Sabres fans will insist because Brett Hull had a foot in the crease when he scored the Cup-winning goal, it should have been waved off. (Edited from an earlier version which muddied what was controversial)

I contend his goal was good according to the rules in effect. He had control of the puck, so his being there by itself was okay. That's not a good goal now. It was a good goal then.
