Filip Gustavsson, the Minnesota Wild goalie, made history by scoring a rare goalie goal in a 4-1 victory over the St. Louis Blues. With just 8.1 seconds left, he gloved a shot, dropped it, and sent it into an empty net, marking his first goal ever and the first goalie goal for the Wild.
Encouraged by teammate Marc-Andre Fleury, Gustavsson became the 15th goalie in NHL history to score, and he celebrated with a flyby of the Wild bench. His strong performance this season has been crucial for Minnesota amid injury challenges.
