Michael Grabner pulled out a horseshoe.
The snakebitten Toronto Maple Leafs winger used the seat of his pants to snap a 30-game goalless drought Sunday night while spilling into the Detroit Red Wings net on a breakaway attempt.
Grabner was initially awarded a penalty shot, but after review, it was ruled that the puck did indeed beat his person into the net.
He had fun with the goal, an eventual game-winner, on social media after the contest.
Well that was just how I practiced it..I will take it tho and glad it didn't come to a penalty shot with my 0% success rate #usethat🍑
