Think going to the net is not its own reward? Here (courtesy of the Washington Post) is a graphic of where the goals came from in the series. The furthest Caps goal came from 36 feet, the overtime goal by Alexander Semin off a Jason Arnott feed in Game 1. Only one other of the 13 total goals the Caps scored came from outside 20 feet.

I think Chimera's goal was a little closer than that...haha...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful thing isn't it? That is how you score goals in the playoffs. I'm loving it.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget Semin's tap-in that was on the goal-line. That started the Game 4 comeback; Chimera's goal ended it. Two goals, 10" total....
