The All-Star Game barely resembles hockey, except for the fact that Evgeny Kuznetsov is scoring. This one comes from an assist from Carolina’s Justin Faulk, who you might be surprised to learn is an All-Star.
It’s a hockey fadeaway. It went off Roberto Lungo’s mask and in.
Kuznetsov’s goal came on his second shift. On his first, Kuznetsov tried that reverse backhand pass from below the goal line.
It’s like his natural habitat out there.
The score is– well, the score doesn’t matter.
