Watch: Maroon drops down bunt for 25th goal of season

Perry Nelson / USA TODAY Sports

With the patience to apply the bunt after the puck dropped below the crossbar, Patrick Maroon hit the 25-goal plateau Monday versus the Los Angeles Kings with some tidy hand-eye coordination.

Maroon's career-best goal total entering the year was 11. He has 22 at even strength alone in his first full season with the Edmonton Oilers.

The super sophomore who sent the puck airborne for Maroon with a shot off the shoulder of Jonathan Quick, Connor McDavid, reclaimed a provisional lead in the NHL scoring race with his 81st point.
