Ovi's reaction is priceless lol
I've whiffed on so many open nets that I'm pretty sure I'd have more goals than Gretzky if I connected on at least half of 'em.
Having said that, I'm not sure I've whiffed on a shot as badly as Washington Capitals forward Dylan Strome did this evening.
Strome had a wide open net and not only does he not get a shot on the wide open net from in the goal crease, but he somehow manages to put the puck over the glass and entirely out of play.
Check it out:
Huh...
It must run in the family, I guess?
That's the worst whiff I've seen since Craig Smith missed a literal open net by trying to go top shelf on the doorstep.
Remember this?
Okay... actually now that I think about it... Smith's is worse. In Strome's case he at least had a goaltender that he was trying to lift the puck over. Smith simply just got caught hot-dogging.
