VIDEO: Goal disallowed after Blackhawks' Shaw headbutts puck into net in 2OT

Andrew Shaw tried to use his head to end Game 2 of the Western Conference Final between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday, but he was foiled by the rulebook.
The Blackhawks forward jumped to headbutt a loose puck into the net midway through the second overtime period and began celebrating as though Chicago won the contest. Unfortunately for Shaw and his teammates, it is illegal to intentionally direct the puck across the goal line with your head, so the goal was disallowed.
Legal or not, the header shows some nice form by Shaw - especially on skates. Lionel Messi would be impressed.
