Winning Play: Burns goes aerial
Stephen R. Sylvanie-USA TODAY SportsAs the Longfellow poem goes, “One if by land, and two if by sea...and 88 if by air.”
That’s where Brent Burns (88) went to overcome the Vegas Golden Knights’ forecheck in last night’s 2-1 Game 6 double-overtime victory.
Burns wasn't credited with assist here, but he deserved one: With no great options around him, little time on clock & #VegasBorn on top of him, he lofted a perfectly-placed area pass to create 50-50 battle at center ice between Meier & Engelland.
