Video: Matthew Tkachuk Scores Between The Legs Goal


In Saturday night's game against the New York Rangers, Calgary Flames forward Matthew Tkachuk showed great skill and shot the puck between his legs to beat Igor Shesterkin.


The Flames as a whole were on fire last night, as they defeated the Blueshirts by a final score of 6-0. Yet, Tkachuk's goal was clearly the most beautiful and shows that he offers far more than just his physical style of play. 

Tkachuk dominated the scoresheet in general, too. Besides his remarkable goal, he also recorded three assists. With his four point night, he now six goals and five assists in 11 games. That's not bad production from a forward who has an expiring contract.

This was certainly a great response from Tkachuk, too, as he was just fined $5,000 in the previous game. Perhaps coughing up some dough sparked his wonderful performance.
