Michael Ryder dekes around Jets, scores goal from his knees

That might be the definition of undressing your opponent.

Ed Mulholland-USA TODAY Sports

For the longest time, the Jets looked like they would skate out of New Jersey with a 1-0 win on Thursday. Michael Ryder changed that in an instant, skating around Mark Stuart with a nice deke before roofing the puck past Jets goalie Ondrej Pavelec on the far side.

It was a beautiful goal that ultimately sent the game to overtime and diminished what would’ve been a rare shutout performance by Pavelec. Winnipeg fans have to be upset about that, but even they must appreciate the skills Ryder flashed there. Wow.
