This goal scored by the Panthers’ Nick Bjugstad might not be the flashiest or most thrilling display we’ve seen in the NHL this year, but it certainly features one heck of a shot. Bjugstad carries the puck to the bottom of the faceoff circle and rips a laser that manages to find a tiny, tiny opening left by Wild goaltender Devan Dubnyk. The puck clangs off the crossbar, redirecting off the far post and in to give Florida a 1-0 lead midway through the game. Excellent stuff.
