There was a showdown this weekend between No. 6-ranked Minnesota Duluth and No. 8-ranked Nebraska-Omaha in NCHC men’s hockey. They battled to a 1-1 draw in consecutive games, with the Mavericks prevailing in the shootout on both nights.
But thanks to Jake Randolph, they did it in spectacular fashion on Saturday.
Randolph pulled out the famous “Forsberg” move in the shootout, baffling freshman goaltender Kasimir Kaskisuo with a nasty bit of trickery. He skated in, cut left, brought the puck back to his right and then tucked it into an open net.
Kaskisuo attempted to reach back over with his glove, but unfortunately the rest of his body was traveling in the opposite direction.
Randolph, 20, was born in Duluth, incidentally.
This isn’t the first time he’s pulled this move. While playing for the Omaha Lancers of the USHL, he did this in 2012:
Informal poll: Sick of “the Forsberg?” Independent of being sick of the shootout? Or is it always awesome to see the goalie deked out of his skates?
