On Saturday night, Linus Ullmark, the goalie for the Boston Bruins, became a member of a group which only goalies can join..Late in the game, with the Bruins leading the Vancouver Canucks 2 –1 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, the Canucks pulled their goalie to get a man advantage and try to even the score..A pass from Vancouver defenseman Quinn Hughes bounced off the stick of right winger Brock Boeser, ending up in front of Ullmark..Ullmark can be seen coolly corralling the puck, then lofting it the length of the ice, into the Vancouver net..“As soon as I shot, I see three guys jumping towards me, and I had no idea where it was,” Ullmark told NHL.com..“I didn’t hear anything. I didn’t see anything and then you become a little bit more aware of what’s happening, that the guys are starting to look up ice and then I see it going towards the net and the rest is history,” Ullmark said..It marked only the 13th time in NHL history a goalie has scored in a regular season game and the first Bruin to pull off the feat..The last goalie to mark the milestone was Nashville Predators goalie Pekka Rinne during a game against the Chicago Blackhawks in January 2020..Ullmark, a 29-year-old Swedish native, has played eight seasons in the NHL and is having a standout year. His record now stands at 30-4-1 and he leads the league in goals-against average at 1.86 and save percentage..He has been earmarked as a candidate for this year’s Vezina Trophy, awarded each year to the league’s top goaltender..Scoring a goal and joining an exclusive club is certainly going to enhance his chance..This is what the Western Standard is up againstThe Trudeau government is funding lies and propaganda by directly subsidizing the mainstream media.
