I know it’s easy to get distracted by his hair, which is so curly that the Caps made a Chia Pet out of it and handed them out to fans. Sonny Milano has some of the slickest hands in hockey.
His second goal of the game against the Hurricanes on Friday upstaged a power play goal from Alex Ovechkin only minutes earlier. Right off of a faceoff by Dylan Strome, Milano tapped the puck in the air like he was juggling a hot potato, then tapped it again and over the shoulder of Carlino goalie Pyotr Kochetkov to give the Caps a 3-2 lead.
