Mikael Granlund scored an empty net goal for the Wild off the faceoff like a boss

I feel like this deserves a stick drop of some kind.

Moments after the Columbus Blue Jackets cut the Wild lead to one, Mikael Granlund put down the ultimate mic drop with this strangely satisfying empty net goal off the faceoff.

The initial miss on the faceoff and Ryan Johansen's anticipatory body angle combined to create quite the final score in the Wild's 4-2 win over the Blue Jackets. Granlund was the only other player for the Wild not named Zach Parise to score in the victory, and it came with just 14 seconds left to play in the game.

Not a bad way to break a 20 game goalless drought either.
