Former Blackhawk Brandon Hagel Scores The Most Funny and Controversial Goal of The Year

We all remember how the Lightning exploited salary cap loopholes to have a advantage over their opposition and Lightning Coach Jon Cooper is notorious for playing mind games with the media and/or officials if it will help his team.

However, last night was crazy as Lightning forward Brandon Hagel made an attempt to score the most controversial you'll probably ever see in your life. As Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin had the puck in his pads trying to freeze the play dead, Hagel reaches down and picks up the puck and throws back into play.

The puck then bounced off a skate of a Rangers player and past Igor Shesterkin into the Rangers net.

Hagel would think he got away with his sneaky play as the official would initially rule it a good goal, but after review they reversed the call which was the right thing on the play, but can't blame Hagle for trying.
