Arizona Coyotes forwards Shane Doan and Jordan Martinook were clearly inspired on Saturday, channeling Aaron Rodgers' Hail Mary touchdown pass in the Green Bay Packers' divisional-round game against the Cardinals.
Doan threw up a prayer to Martinook, who used his glove to tap it by Los Angeles Kings defenseman Drew Doughty before going backhand shelf for a filthy go-ahead goal on Saturday.

The tally proved to be the eventual game-winner as the Coyotes snapped a four-game losing streak with a 3-2 victory.
Martinook now has five goals and 10 assists in 46 games this season.
