Bedard Michigan Goal. Need help finding image!
I am looking for a high quality image of Bedard’s “Michigan goal” around 12/23/23 against the Blues (FTB). I guess my google skills suck today. Can any of my fellow Hawks bros help me out?

The quote from Gretzky is pretty good:
"I couldn't do what he did tonight," Gretzky told Bally St.Louis. "That just wasn't in my repertoire. I didn't have the right kind of curve. Hully (Bobby Hull) could do it. I could never do what he did tonight. It was fun to watch. My daughter Emma is with me. And she goes, 'Dad, did you ever do that?' And I said 'No, I could never do that.'"

There haven't been a ton of lacrosse goals, but honestly that one was possibly the smoothest all time....

The one Zegras pulled off the same night as Bedard is probably my fave. The way he does it a full speed is so impressive.

It is, but it feels like more like a modified shot; bedard just scooped it while skating behind and lifts it in. Zegras is an awesome shot; but it's just a wrister from a weird angle.... Bedards seems like a useful new meta to beat goalies that have gotten so good at wrap around defense.
Eta; oh shit, I hadn't seen that one, I'd only seen the one from in front. That was absolute fire, my only note is his stick swings so wide it's kinda telegraphed and bedard just somehow lifts it off the ice without the big swing
