By chance, I saw the following clip today from April 4th 1988 (the clip incorrectly says '1987'), game 3 of the Edmonton - Winnipeg playoff series:
Mark Messier scores a short-handed goal after Randy Carlyle falls on his ass (ties the game at 3-3, but the Jets would go on to win -- their first playoff win over Edmonton in 13 tries). What's interesting about the goal is that the Oil were 2-men shorthanded at the time, with both Grant Fuhr and Dave Hannan penalized at the time. I watched this game when I was 12, but I didn't remember this detail.
So, any other examples of NHL goals where the scoring team was down 3-men-against-5?
