Big play
Jason Pominville had one of the most unusual assists of the year in the third period. The Minnesota winger had one shot that hit the right post, he collected the rebound and had another shot that hit the left post. In the mad scramble off of his two misses, Erik Haula was able to crash the net and stuff in a rebound to tie the game 2-2.
