Jarry91裸聊视频檚 unassisted empty-net goal with just over a minute left in the third period lifted the Penguins to a 4-2 road win over the Tampa Bay Lightning Nov. 30, with the Surrey-born, North Delta-raised netminder making 39 saves on the night.

The 28-year-old called it 91裸聊视频渢he perfect scenario,91裸聊视频� as a weak pass from Lightning d-man Victor Hedman tipped off the stick of teammate Anthony Cirelli.
91裸聊视频淭hey dumped it right on net and I didn91裸聊视频檛 even have to stop it, I just shot it right on the fly and it just ended up going in,91裸聊视频� he said.
91裸聊视频淚t was coming in kinda slow and I was able just to get around it and shoot as hard as I could.91裸聊视频�
91裸聊视频淚t was pretty lucky.91裸聊视频�

Both the fans at Amalie Arena and Jarry91裸聊视频檚 teammates erupted as his shot crossed the goal line.
91裸聊视频淥ur bench certainly loved it when it happened. They were all fired up,91裸聊视频� head coach Mike Sullivan told media after the game. 91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 something that you don91裸聊视频檛 see that often, so those types of events they91裸聊视频檙e fun.91裸聊视频�
Pittsburgh captain Sidney Crosby said Jarry91裸聊视频檚 goal was 91裸聊视频減retty cool to see.91裸聊视频�
91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 cool to be part of that. You see it happen, but I91裸聊视频檝e never seen it live and been a part of it, so I91裸聊视频檓 really happy for him,91裸聊视频� Crosby told media after the game.
The Penguins star praised the netminder91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频渟olid91裸聊视频� play in a game that didn91裸聊视频檛 look good for the visiting team, who got off to a sluggish start and was down two goals at the end of the first period.
91裸聊视频淭hey had the one tip-in there and then another one with some traffic, so he had to battle rebounds and traffic all night,91裸聊视频� Crosby said. 91裸聊视频淪o to keep it at two and give us a chance to get our feet under us and get back in it was really important and, you know, he shut the door basically the rest of the way.91裸聊视频�

Sullivan said he hopes the team can hold onto the energy on the bench following Jarry91裸聊视频檚 goal and build on their 91裸聊视频済utsy effort91裸聊视频� throughout the game.
91裸聊视频淭here are moments during the course of the year that I think help to galvanize a group; that could be one of them,91裸聊视频� Sullivan said. 91裸聊视频淲e91裸聊视频檙e trying to build a team here and, you know, we91裸聊视频檝e got a lot of new guys on the team here and we91裸聊视频檙e trying to come together as a group as quickly as we can, and those types of moments, sometimes they help.91裸聊视频�
Jarry is just the 14th goalie in NHL history to score a goal, and only the fourth in the last 10 years, joining the Boston Bruins91裸聊视频� Linus Ullmark (a 3-1 win on Feb. 25, 2023 over the Vancouver Canucks), Pekka Rinne (a 5-2 win for the Nashville Predators against the Chicago Blackhawks on Jan. 9, 2020) and Mike Smith (a 5-2 win for the Phoenix Coyotes over the Detroit Red Wings on Oct. 19, 2013).
While Thursday night91裸聊视频檚 goal was Jarry91裸聊视频檚 first in the NHL, it91裸聊视频檚 not the only goal he91裸聊视频檚 made from his own crease.
Jarry scored a similar goal while in net for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins (Pittsburgh91裸聊视频檚 AHL affiliate) on Nov. 14, 2018 against the Springfield Thunderbirds. That game was also on the road, and Jarry91裸聊视频檚 goal was also a franchise first.
In light of Jarry91裸聊视频檚 goal last night, we thought we91裸聊视频檇 do a and revisit this beauty from 2018 馃槏
