Nathan MacKinnon just wrapped Henrik Lundqvist’s limbs into a soft pretzel.
The 21-year-old Colorado Avalanche star scored in sudden death overtime, giving North America a hard-fought 4-3 win over Sweden in group play. After receiving the puck in the slot all alone, MacKinnon went into video game mode, deking multiple times before burying the puck home on his backhand.
You have to see this.

The most impressive part is how MacKinnon curl-and-drags around Hank’s pokecheck and then went top shelf. It’s insanity, people.
Like this feels fast even in super slo-mo.
