Oliver Wahlstrom's shootout attempt in the Boston Bruins "TD Bank Mini 1-on-1" competition begins as expected: Deliberate skating to the puck before picking up speed into the zone. But once he gets between the faceoff circles ... well, let's just say we wouldn't have been shocked to see him pull a rabbit out of his helmet before sawing a woman in half. This is hockey magic.

Good for the lil guy.
That has got to be the best goal I have ever seen!
worth watching even if you don’t care a thing about hockey!!!
I fail to understand the use of the word “sick” in today’s parlance.....
Hope the kid spends 1/10th the time on his homework that he spent practicing this shot...but I bet not...
Paging Bill Belisle, Paging Bill Belisle, you are wanted in Portland to pick up a 9 year old and offer him a four year scholarship to Mt. St. Charles Academy in Woonsocket, RI...Pronto!!

My friend at work just had a son. I told him to pick a sport and glue the equipment to his hand.
Wow, that’s one amazing stick trick-—the poor goalie did not know what to think about it!
He’ll look real good in a Dallas Stars uniform.
OK, shows you how clueless I am. I was about to report a typo for “slick.” Never mind.
My AVG says don’t go there. ???
See the comments on Yahoo. Some hater says this move is “easy” to defend because the motion is always the same. I think we spotted the goalie’s dad lol.
It may be a New England thing....like "wicked"...meaning 'extreme'. I don't get out of MA much but the 'sick' thing is used a lot up here.
That was sick! A little boy picking on a full grown man?
They should have had more camera angles, would have made it more interesting. /s
Too Cool and he will be laughing about that when he is 60.
It’s fine.
Did you read the comments on the Yahoo site?
Totally disappointing.
Most of the commenters actually derided the kid’s shot and skills!
Nah, we use here in California too.
That was Sick! i.e. wicked, cool, gnarly, bitchin’, Dude!, etc,
That has got to be the sickest shot I’ve ever seen. Did you see the reaction from the goalie? Looks like he was even stunned by that shot.
Just think, now he can go pro and for $25k a year get all his teeth knocked out and wind up an alcoholic looking back on his glory days 10 years from now ... /sarc
Is it a sad comment, in a way, that the kid will probably make more money playing hockey than any profession he needs tradtional homework for?
That shot was like an old Harlem Globetrotter move!
Now that this kid has opened the door for such moves, I can’t wait til everyone in hockey starts catching on. Hockey players will be forced to take ballet and yoga classes. -Be ONE with the stick...be ONE with the puck...
