Blackhawks' Spencer Knight gives up Jets goal after stick gets wedged in boards
Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Spencer Knight was making a routine play behind the net, but his stick got wedged into a small gap in the boards.
On Saturday, November 14, Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Spencer Knight allowed a goal during a fluke play. While executing a routine play on a Winnipeg Jets dump-in, Knight's stick became wedged in a small gap between the boards behind the net. Jets forward Mark Scheifele quickly seized the opportunity, scooping the puck and passing it to Kyle Connor.
Knight desperately attempted to reach the puck in front of the goal, but Connor managed to score the goal, cutting the Blackhawks' lead to 4-2 just 18 seconds into the second period. Desperate to retrieve his stick, Knight finally dislodged it as Jets players celebrated. The goal was scored by Kyle Connor, who now boasts 931 career points with the Jets, surpassing the late Dale Hawerchuk's previous record of 929 points.
