VIDEO: Blue Jackets' Tropp bats puck into net from his back on disallowed goal

Corey Tropp gets full points for creativity on this play against the Montreal Canadiens on Thursday, even if the goal he scored was immediately disallowed.

The Columbus Blue Jackets forward's initial chance deflected up and landed on top of the net while he fell to the ice. Tropp was able to pop the puck off the netting on top and bat it out of midair - all while lying on his back - to produce one of the more impressive illegal goals in NHL history.
