Just thought I temper the sad thoughts of John Lennon's death with a moment in hockey history.

This has been done since. If you like a good hockey fight youtube Ron Hextall sometime. Very entertaining.

Just think of all the players who've come and gone from the NHL who rank lower in goals (and points) than Mr. Hextall. :D

It figures that a goalie with his spirit and attitude would be the first to shoot the puck into the net. Very entertaining to watch. Also, the Potvin-Hextall fight is a classic.

Doesn't he have three or four now? Hextall wasn't the first to get a goal, the Islanders goalie (Smith?) was credited with one during their hayday.

Smith was credited with a goal as he was the last player to touch the puck before an opposing player put it into his own net.

Hextall is the first one to intentionally get a puck on net and score a goal. Here is a fun little wiki link
