3. Artemi Panarin Game 3 vs the Carolina Hurricanes
Incredible hand-eye coordination from the Breadman to win it in overtime and put the team up 3-0 in the series. To be able to tip the puck between the legs to the far side of the goal as he is skating the opposite way is a piece of art. Also, don’t let the 10/10 leg kick celly go unnoticed.
2. Mika Zibanejad Game 1 vs the Carolina Hurricanes (Second goal of the game)
Ah yes, Game 1 of the second round. When the Rangers' power play was at its peak in the playoffs. Good times.
Just an incredible team play to score eight seconds into the man advantage. Everybody touched the puck and there were two beautiful spinning backhand passes, one from Trocheck and one from Kreider, before Mika blasted the puck into the back of the net. If a team is looking at how to execute spacing, passing, and finishing on the power play, this is the clip to show.
