My interpretation of that rule (although I absolutely could be wrong) is that if you bat a puck with a high stick and it is going to go into the net then the goal will not count (even if a defender or goalie touches it on the way in) but if it is highsticked but is not going to go into the net but then is hit by an opposing player to change the trajectory of the puck so that it now goes into the net then the goal will count. So last night, the high stick was pushing the puck from above the net to the crease area (would not have gone in the net on its own) but then it bounced of Nurse (or maybe Skinner) and changed direction. So if it was seen to cross the line (thankfully it wasn't) then it would have been a good goal.
Someone please correct me if my thoughts are wrong.
