Knies scores a crazy goal with 0.1 seconds left on the clock

[TheDoldrums]

Scoring a goal off a defensive zone faceoff with under 6 seconds left is nuts

 

[KevinRedkey]

Great awareness
Good shot
Bad pass
Terrible goaltending

Man if the Caufield 3 vs 3 goal thread wasnt thread worthy this one definitely isnt thread worthy LOL

 

[DitchMarner]

This kid is going to be a force. He's already a 20+ goal scorer who shows occasional flashes of brilliance.

Should become a 30+ goal scoring physical force with sweet hands and finesse skills.

 

[stymie]

Some legacy.

 

[The Hockey Tonk Man]

Neat goal, pretty wild

EK65 with a beauty pass

He's pacing for 31 if the plays the rest of the way so it seems like he's already pretty much at that level

Extremely impressive sophomore season. He's the ideal powerforward in the modern NHL

Karlsson deserved to be named one of the game's three stars.

 

[mobilus]

Sid's fault. If he'd lost the draw this never would have happened.

 

[johnnyonthspot]

Came here to hate but that was pretty sweet actually

Leafs magic. This is why I know it is their year to win the cup.

 

[Squiffy]

Karlsson is the most overrated defenseman in today’s NHL.

Nobody is over-rating him lol..

Honestly, it's nuts.

You see a couple things a year maybe that make you go "man, never seen that before, might never again"... that was one of them.

All Karlsson had to do was hold onto that puck and the Leafs don't score.

First time I've ever seen that. 5.7 seconds left on a defensive zone faceoff? Enough for the offensive team to score but the first time I've seen the defensive team score off that. Also good attitude by Knies to go for it instead of just assuming that he won't have enough time.

Gotta say, though, Blomqvist is not impressing me with that, guy is so far out but is completely out of position. And he could have gone way further out, since Knies had no way to go around him.

In that situation you're trying to play for a goal for your team, you don't play to prevent the opponent from scoring.

 

[MCR74]

Things just keep getting better and better for Kyle.

 

[Madap]

I’d be curious what the record is. Defensive zone draw with a goalie in net? I’d guess this might be the lowest amount of time left in a period it’s ever been done.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

Things just keep getting better and better for Kyle.

I hope he experiences nothing but misery for the rest of his management career.

 

[Anglesmith]

The subtle edgework displayed by the goalie to move out of the shooting lane right at the perfect moment is really quite something.

All in all, a stellar performance by everyone involved.

 

[Midnight Judges]

Incredible sequence. You may never see that ever again.

Meh, Karlsson's got a few years left on his contract.

Seriously though, I recall him making a similar mistake last year.

 

[missionAvs]

Damn can't get any closer than that. Didn't Bouchard score with like 0.3 seconds left in regulation last week for the Oilers as well? I think it was against the Canes.

 

[Midnight Judges]

Nobody is over-rating him lol..

He won a Norris recently. That was like 21 Months ago.

Arguably the most undeserved trophy in the history of the NHL.

 

[kevsh]

I think the last 3 goals by the Leafs were all high blocker side, and at least two from long range.
Keeper might want to work on that. And EK on whatever that pass was.

 

[HockeyVirus]

The subtle edgework displayed by the goalie to move out of the shooting lane right at the perfect moment is really quite something.

I'm not sure what about Knies body language made the goalie think he was going glove side for him to cheat that badly. Maybe he straight up lost his net and thought he was centering himself

Wyatt Johnston: Hold my beer.


Seriously though, awesome to have clutch last tenth of a second goals going down.

That's pretty good! Was Karlsson on defense for that one too? Sure looked like it.
