It's one thing for a goalie to score a goal. But to do it with the opposition on the man advantage?
That was the story Saturday, when Val-D'or Foreurs netminder Etienne Montpetit fired a long-range shot from behind his own net and into the opposing cage, cementing his team's 6-2 victory over the Quebec Remparts.
It was a successful night on all counts for Montpetit, who stopped 33 pucks that came his way as he sealed his 10th victory of the season.
The 19-year-old has a 10-8-0 record in the QMJHL this season, and his shorthanded goal helps pad his impressive offensive statistics. He now has two points on the season (one goal, one assist).
