Troy Brouwer is your hero. After Alex Ovechkin’s stick got slashed out of his hands, Brouwer, in the slot, just skated in a circle and fired blindly on net.
He scored!
Take a look at Ovechkin. He goes from “Where’s the call, ref?” to 60 feet in the air in under a second.

After the game, Brouwer said that he believed the shot handcuffed Corey Crawford.
