Blackhawks' Spencer Knight gives up Jets goal after stick gets wedged in boards

Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Spencer Knight gave up a goal on Saturday, Nov. 14, on the flukiest of fluke plays.

Knight skated behind the Blackhawks net to make a routine play on a Winnipeg Jets dump-in, but he wasn't able to play the puck because his stick got wedged into a small gap in the boards.

Jets forward Mark Scheifele swooped in, grabbed the puck and passed it to Kyle Connor. Knight desperately tried to get out front in the net, but Connor scored to cut the Blackhawks' lead to 4-2 at 18:01 of the second period.

Knight skated behind the net and pulled out the stick, which was still standing upright, as Jets players celebrated.

The play happened while the public address announcer at United Center was acknowledging that Scheifele had become the Jets' all-time leading scorer with his goal earlier in the period.

The goal and the assist gave Scheifele 931 career points with the franchise. The late Dale Hawerchuk had 929.

The statistics of the first version of the Winnipeg Jets (1980-1996) were recently incorporated into the stats of the current version (2012 to present).
