Wild goaltending prospect Kaapo Kahkonen scores goal, celebrates like a boss

Ron Chenoy / USA TODAY Sports

The Minnesota Wild now have a goaltender who can stop pucks. 

They also have one with some gall. 

Kaapo Kahkonen, a fourth-round pick of the Wild playing in Finland's tier-two professional ranks, scored a goal-scorer's goal by a goaltender (you still with me?) on Saturday. 

Watch as he looks off a winger flying down the boards, turns, lifts a perfect lob over the extra attacker and skates away on one leg like a boss.

Not to mention sending the announcer off the handle.
