We've seen good shootout goals before. We've even seen
deceitful shootout goals recently
. But Ristolainen's was something different.
The Sabres defenseman closed in on Anaheim Ducks goalie Jonathan Bernier. He deked, then went strong to the forehand, then reached all the way back around the goalie, now moving to his left, and snuck the puck into the net.
The goal tied the shootout at two goals apiece, setting the stage for Girgensons to win it.
It was the first shootout attempt of Ristolainen's four-season NHL career, but apparently he has known for a while what move he would use if he'd ever gotten the chance.
