its ALL LEGAL
if a penalty was to be given, it is counted as interference, or charging and it is a 2min penalty

But here's the thing, goalies aren't fair game either way. If you compare the two incidents, Lucic could have let up while Tootoo had pressure behind him. The only difference being the position of Miller, but either way, it's almost unwritten that you DO NOT run the goalie (I think most hockey players understand this).
