THEY SAID IT!
"I think as soon as I saw the puck getting dumped in on me I did the quick math. 'We're on the pk, there's no pressure on me here, I can get it down there. If I miss it's still a good clear or I could score.' Quickly after I ripped that puck I saw pretty early that it was going in." - Iowa Wild goaltender Jesper Wallstedt on his goal.
