I think you were trying to say it WAS an attempt.

It was an attempt, but the attempt was not prevented by an opponent, and the attempt was never RELEASED on a try. That is a travel.
An attempt was made, NF uses the example of a foul preventing release but the rule states it's not ESSENTIAL the ball be released. Since he was trying to put it thru his goal i agree with physicsref - play on.
