With the New Jersey Devils badly in need of a win Saturday against the Washington Capitals to stay in the playoff hunt, forward Kyle Palmieri certainly did his part to help.
After picking up an assist on a Travis Zajac goal, the 25-year-old sniped an incredible shot from the goal line over the crouched Braden Holtby and into the far top corner to give the Devils a 2-1 lead.

Palmieri, who grew up playing for the New Jersey Devils Youth Hockey Club, has already set career highs in goals (22) and points (39) with over 20 games remaining in the season.
