Ice hockey
In ice hockey, scoring a goal is similar to scoring a goal in football.
Nevertheless, the puck must be put completely over the goal line
between the posts and under the bar either off an offensive player's stick
or off any part of a defensive player's body. The puck may not be
kicked, batted, or thrown into the goal, though a goal may be awarded if
the puck is inadvertently deflected off an offensive player's skate or body
into the goal.

The goal structure is a frame 4 feet (1.2 m) tall and 6 feet
(1.8 m) wide with a net attached. In most higher levels of play the goal
structure is attached to the ice surface by flexible pegs and will break
away for safety when hit by a player. The goal is placed within the
playing surface, and players may play the puck behind the goal.
