Fluke Goal Topples Blue Jacket COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Brendan Morrison's pass struck Columbus forward Manny Malhotra and caromed into the net, snapping a third-period tie Friday night and giving the Vancouver Canucks a 3-2 victory over the Blue Jackets that ended a season-high, five-game losing streak.
Morrison's attempted centering pass from the left corner hit Malhotra and landed behind goaltender Pascal Leclaire with 6:11 remaining. Okay, well...now we are losing them with freak goals...I am going out on a limp here and say we will lose the next one by forfeit when the referee stops play because he does not like the choice of music that's playing in the arena...Hey, it could very well happen...you never know. In another bit of news, our Goalie Pascal Leclaire was credited with an assist on a power play...cool! |
