He's either going toward the goal line or he's moving parallel to the LOS. It's an either or sitch.

Agreed. What I was trying to indicate (and apparently not very well) was that he is running off angle, like maybe 3 degrees off parallel.

Can the player go in motion any direction legally as long as they are not going toward the opponents goal at the moment of the snap?
