Watch: Drouin goes end-to-end, beats Budaj top shelf
Jonathan Drouin is a magician. Love how he realizes that's a forward trying to defend him, then just goes and attacks him with the puck. pic.twitter.com/lndn2eP3zN

Jonathan Drouin: 2, California: 0.
Make that goals in two straight for the Tampa Bay Lightning whiz kid. After potting a goal against the Anaheim Ducks last game, Drouin opened the scoring Tuesday against the Los Angeles Kings with a dandy, flying up ice and cutting through the offensive zone with ease before wiring one past Peter Budaj.
Even more impressive than the end-to-end rush? This sneaky angle to find the top shelf:
Just a casual far side snipe from no angle for Drouin here. pic.twitter.com/DxbvLaqxT1
