Best Goals of the Second Round

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmkleMhMCcY - Moore
Have you ever played football in your front yard? And one time did you drop the ball and it rolled into the street? And were you about to run into the street to get your ball but saw a car driving in your direction so all you could do was just watch as it rolled over your football? Well this kind of happened to Dominic Moore of the Tamp Bay Lightning. The puck was just sitting on the doorstep of the goal but an 18 wheeler (Ovechkin) was charging its way. But he sacrificed his body and payed the price for the game 1 clinching goal.

Last year's playoff hero for San Jose' was at it again this year especially with this beauty of a goal. Skating into the zone full speed he was able to locate the puck that went airborne after a rebound. Then he was able to hit the puck out of midair directly into the net for a big tying goal in the third period of game 1.

Not the nicest goal I've seen but the degree of difficulty is eminent and the perfectly placed backhander after a sharp Savardian-Spin-O-Rama made me put it up. It was a big first goal and it was the Wings' first goal in their comeback so ya. I think it's pretty nice.

Similar to Michael Cammalleri's goal last year in the playoffs (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RP4Vm6UDj4) Lidstrom kicked the puck up to himself before bouncing it through a crowd of players and into the net. A bouncing shot is something that's tough to stop especially if it's from Nicklas Lidstrom

Ryan Kesler didn't do too much in the first round for the Canucks against Chicago. When he started to appear, he dominated the games. He was surely the MVP for the Canucks against the Predators in round 2. He was always in front of Rinne, he forechecked hard, and the broadcasters couldn't stop talking about him. Then he scored a gorgeous goal to break a tie in the third period of game 4. This was the best goal of the second round.

Best Game: Game 6 San Jose' @ Detroit
