Here’s an incredible display of hand-eye coordination from Boston Bruins skater Brett Connolly. The puck deflected in Connolly’s direction and he corralled it in midair with his stick and flung the puck towards the net like a lacrosse shot. His shot beat Henrik Lundqvist and while this effort only counted as a preseason goal, what a goal it was.

Here’s another look. It’s an amazing play by Connolly, especially when you consider how little time he had to react and get the puck on frame.
