It’s now known simply as “The Goal.”
John Quenneville’s sensational tally at the 2016 Memorial Cup on Saturday has been not only one of the top sports plays of the week, but one of the most talked about highlights of the hockey season.
On a night that included conference final games in the NHL and NBA, the Brandon Wheat King center managed to trend on Twitter, right behind another King: Lebron James.
Quenneville has been called a “full-time hockey player and part-time magician” for the through-the-legs breakaway move he seemed to pull out of a hat.
