Radko Gudas scores one of the luckiest goals you'll ever see
After winning their first two games of the season earlier this week, the San Jose Sharks seem back to their losing ways - this time in a comical fashion.
In their 4-1 loss to the Anaheim Ducks, the Sharks allowed a goal that wasn't even close to expected. Ducks' defenceman Radko Gudas unleashed a shot from the point, which was tipped early, and fluttered into the net over the goaltender in an arc.
It's a rare goal in the NHL that doesn't come from a direct mistake by a player, and instead just by pure puck luck.
More than that, the goal is feels like a microcosm for the entire season so far for the Sharks - unfortunate on every bounce. It's an ultimately meaningless for both teams in a meaningless game between bottom-feeders, but this goal will be remembered as one of the most unfortunate goals against this year.
