Jonathan Quick never stood a chance.

The Los Angeles Kings netminder was burned by a gorgeous tally from Washington Capitals winger T.J. Oshie on Saturday night. He got help from Marcus Johansson, who kicked things off with a slick move to get past the Kings' defense and whip a shot on net.

Oshie then finished off the play in style, tapping in the airborne rebound to net Washington a 2-1 lead.

In doing so, Oshie tied his career high in goals, scoring his 26th of the season in his 54th game of 2016-17. It took him 23 more games to post that amount last season, as he registered his 26th tally in his 77th appearance of 2015-16.
