KHL Player Scores Javelin-Style Shootout Goal

Aug 2, 2016

The KHL's Vladimir Tkachyov provided possibly the top hockey highlight of 2016, and the summer isn't over yet. 

The Russian found a new way to beat a goaltender in a shootout as part of Ak Bars Kazan's preseason club showcase, per Jared Clinton of the Hockey News.

Tkachyov scooped the puck onto his blade, lifted it and then fired the stick toward the goal while the puck remained in place.

The javelin throw worked to perfection for the best, funniest goal you'll see this summer. 

Would this be legal during an actual game? Of course not. But that doesn't make it any less awesome.
