GOAL OF THE YEAR

Check out this overtime goal by Colorado’s Cale Makar. On one replay, Makar's spin move even fakes out the cameraman. 

It’s got to be the goal of the year: Tight space, max speed, top shelf, game-winner. 

The goaltender, unfortunately, is Chicago’s Marc-Andre Fleury, ex- of this parish. Fleury normally works the poke-check on a play like this, but things happened too quick. 

The Rangers’ Adam Fox won the Norris Trophy for the NHL's top defenseman last season. He did so mostly by virtue of playing in New York. 

But Makar has 14 goals in 25 games this season. He’s a human highlight reel. He’s a lock for this year’s Norris. 

The Penguins’ Kris Letang is in the league's top three defensemen right now, BTW.
