SUNRISE, Fla. - Rasmus Dahlin wanted to leave one last mark on All-Star Weekend as the final minute ticked off the clock in the Atlantic Division's victory.
Dahlin was awarded a penalty shot with his team up 6-3 in the final against the Central Division. It was the perfect opportunity to put his skill on display - which he tried to do with a behind-the-legs attempt that just barely deflected off the blocker of goaltender Connor Hellebuyck.
"Not to jinx it, but we pretty much already won the game, so I tried to do something stupid," he said afterward. "… We were having a lot of fun."
Dahlin scored nonetheless, catching a pass from Aleksandr Barkov in front and beating Hellebuyck with a short-side shot with 36 seconds left in the Atlantic Division's 7-5 win. Dahlin previously tallied an assist in the Atlantic's first game, a 10-6 victory over the Metropolitan.
