There were some sweet goals last week and the NHL has put together a collection of what they think are the Top 10. Anyone know how they decide who gets included? Anyway, here is the list from last week:
10. Sidney Crosby is left open long enough to patiently feed a pass to Mark Eaton (his first goal in 91 games) and scored on the New York Rangers.
9. Mike Richards (Philadelphia Flyers) makes an incredibly easy-looking short-handed goal on the Carolina Hurricanes.
8. Alexander Frolov (Los Angeles Kings) just walks right up and scores on the Toronto Maple Leafs after a gorgeous pass from Matt Greene.
7. Martin Havlat (Chicago Blackhawks) ties the game with the Anaheim Ducks
6. Martin Hanzal (Phoenix Coyotes) gets a short-handed goal on the Toronto Maple Leafs and scores a hat-trick
5. Mike Richards (Philadelphia Flyers) scores on the Tampa Bay Lightning after a sick pass from Kimmo Timonen
4. The Tampa Bay Lightning almost deserve as much praise as David Krejci (Boston Bruins) for his short-handed goal on them
3. Sean Donovan (Ottawa Senators) plucks up the puck and just weaves his way to a great goal against the Atlanta Thrashers
2. Andrei Kostitsyn (Montreal Canadiens) scores a great goal after a picture-perfect play against the New York Rangers
1. This spectacular goal by Chicago Blackhawks star, Jonathan Toews, deserves to be in the top spot from last week. He made the Detroit Red Wings look like they were standing still.
