Marian Gaborik ties Game 5 with unreal effort in front of the net

Gaborik’s net presence paid off big time in Game 5.

Pay attention, kids. This goal by Marian Gaborik is exactly how you score a gritty goal in the Stanley Cup Final.

With the Kings on the power play and down by a goal in the third period, Marian Gaborik managed to get an inside position on New York Rangers defenseman Anton Stralman. The Kings shot the puck toward the net, Gaborik tipped it and then somehow pushed the puck past Henrik Lundqvist as he fell down.

Just like that, Game 5 was tied at 2-2. Although the penalty call on the Rangers that set up the power play was a little dubious.
