The Bruins player scores and runs over the goalie
The match between the Boston Bruins and Detroit Red Wings, two of the Original 6 teams, was happening on New Year's Eve.
Despite the off-season additions of players like Patrick Kane and Justin Holl, suggesting the Wings were still in rebuilding mode, it appears that the Yzerplan strategy couldn't anticipate the poor backchecking.
Trent Frederic, the forward for the Boston Bruins, wasted no time in initiating the scoring. He spearheaded an odd-man rush and swiftly fired a shot past Goaltender Alex Lyon, bypassing both defenders.
Throughout the game, Frederic consistently displayed aggression by charging towards the net. However, he also ended up rushing and crashing into Lyon.
Fortunately, Lyon didn't sustain any injuries from the incident. Yet, Frederic's actions sparked frustration among Red Wings players like Ben Chiarot and Jeff Petry. Despite the tension, no physical altercation occurred, and the goal counted.
Meanwhile, Frederic managed to score another goal. The Bruins won the game 5-3.
