What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's March 13 for the San Jose Sharks. Let's get into it. San Jose Sharks forward, William Eklund pulled off one of the most spectacular goals of the season Thursday night against the Boston Bruins.
He batted his own rebound into the net from midair while tumbling backward onto the ice, turning a routine chance into pure highlight magic. Eklund carried the puck up the right side on a late shift, fired a shot that Bruins goalie Jeremy Swayman kicked aside with his pad.
What makes William Eklund's goal against the Bruins so spectacular?
As the puck flipped end over end, Eklund got tangled in the goalie's stick and fell away from the crease, but somehow stayed focused to swat at home. Players and coaches could not believe the play. Eklund admitted he was just battling one-on-one and swung at the puck without a perfect plan. Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky called it a bit like a famous Bobby Orr moment. That goal is already making the rounds on highlight reels everywhere. Warsawski said it's one of the best he's ever seen and will stick around for years. Fans are buzzing about how Eklund's persistence turned a scramble into something unforgettable, giving the Sharks a memorable moment amid their tough season.
