A diving, game-winning goal by a defenseman, where have we seen that before?
San Jose Sharks pivot Marc-Edouard Vlasic brought an end to Tuesday's game against the Anaheim Ducks, scoring a beautiful, breakaway goal reminiscent of Bobby Orr's notorious diving goal against the St. Louis Blues in the 1970 Stanley Cup Final.
Vlasic's first goal of the season gave his Sharks a 2-1 win and halted the club's two-game losing streak.
