Jake Guentzel just put together one of the more incredible hockey goals you’ll ever see.
During Game 7 between the Pittsburgh Penguins and New York Rangers, Guentzel put the away team on top 2-1 after this absolutely absurd goal. With the Penguins on the power play, Guentzel found space all alone right in front to receive a pass, which he then kicked from his skate up in the air before batting it down into the Rangers net past Igor Shesterkin.
It was a hell of an athletic feat, to juggle the puck with precise hand-eye coordination in the way Guentzel did here for a mind-blowing goal. And yet, the goal wasn’t without controversy as it went to review after Guentzel possibly batted the puck in with his stick above the crossbar.
