Kim Klement / USA Today Sports

Oh my god, Jonathan Drouin.

The immensely talented Tampa Bay Lightning forward put on a show Saturday night in Winnipeg, showing off all his skill in setting up Brayden Point's game-opening goal.

In order:

  • Drouin hits Mark Scheifele behind the net
  • Drouin uses a perfect stick check to steal the puck from Jets captain Blake Wheeler
  • Drouin swings to the blue line, keeping the puck in the zone, then dances around Wheeler, who was trying to make amends
  • Drouin goes wide around Scheifele, circling the net for a second time, and throws the puck out front while everyone thinks he's taking the puck with him
Bonkers. Assist of the year.
