No matter how many times you see the classic Peter Forsberg one-handed breakaway goal, it never really gets old because it's that awesome of a move, especially in the shootout.
What makes the move so stunning after all these years is, for starters, the rarity of it, and secondly, how it has evolved over time. Different players have put their own twist on it, like Mike Ribeiro did against the Los Angeles Kings, and that's what's made it so wonderful to watch over the years.
Friday night, Alex Tuch of the Iowa Wild showed off his best Forsberg impression, with his own little twist, as he scored the shootout winner for his team with a wonderful move that fooled the opposing goalie.
Tuch really did a nice job of 'tucking' the puck into the back of the net ever so gently. The twist on this one-handed goal is that Tuch didn't get the goalie over to one side before stretching out to tuck it home. Instead, he made his move and waited for the five-hole to open up.
Tuch, who is in his first season in the AHL after being drafted by the Wild in the first round of the 2014 draft, is having a pretty nice rookie season in the minors with 15 points in 28 games and a plus 7 rating. That being said, as nice as this shootout goal was, it isn't even his best.
