It has happened a bunch of times. Onlly a handfull of goaltenders have actually shot the puck into an empty net, Marty being one of them. I think Ron Hextall did it also.

After looking it up, now 14 goals have been scored by goalies, and 7 of them were because a team put it into their own net, and the goalie was the last one to touch the puck.

Billy Smith was the 1st goalie credited with scoring a goal (Rogie Vachon was originally credited with scoring a goal in 1977, but it was later changed). Hextall was the 1st to actually shoot the puck into the net.

One thing to have a goalie score (which happens occasionally), entirely another for someone to score during a power play where the opposing goalie was pulled. I've literally only seen this happen one other time (a Detroit - Vancouver or San Jose???) game probably 15 years ago. Never seen a goalie get credit for the goal, however.
