If you're looking for evidence as to why San Jose Sharks defenseman Brent Burns is considered one of the best and most skilled players in the NHL, check out the video below.
Not only does the 6-foot-5 behemoth show off his incredible skating skills, he finishes with as beautiful a wrist shot as you'll ever see.

Really, that's unfair.
The goal was Burns' 10th of the season, and he added an assist in the game, which the Sharks lost to the Tampa Bay Lightning, 4-3.
Burns finished with a game-high seven shots on goal and played a game-high - and ridiculous - 32 minutes.
