NEW YORK -
In what is fast becoming a very special Senators spring, there are a number of spectacular moments you are starting to bookmark in your memory bank.
At the top of a hero’s list that includes the names Jean-Gabriel Pageau, Erik Karlsson, Clarke MacArthur, Derick Brassard, Bobby Ryan, Dion Phaneuf and Craig Anderson stands one highlight that, upon much consideration, we’ve upgraded to the greatest two-man play in NHL history.
Hyperbole, that is not. Many more important goals have been scored, of course, but if there is a greater piece of perfection that Karlsson’s goal-line-to-far-blue-line flying saucer received by Mike Hoffman — just over the tallest man in league history — and the slick winger’s sensational finishing touch, please enlighten us.
