Jordan Staal is doing well

Last night after just missing a spectacular game-winning wrap-around in the waning seconds of regulation, Jordan Staal scored an unspectacular game-winner in the waning seconds of overtime. Seriously, Jonathan Quick is going to puke when he watches that on film. I mean I assume he will be exceedingly hung over or drunk because hockey players drink a lot.

Not pictured in the video below were the two ace chances he had to end the game earlier in overtime. You might notice that Staal played a rather prominent role in this game. With no timetable set for Sydney Crosby's return and Evgeni Malkin likely to miss the rest of the season, it falls on Staals shoulders to help maintain the team's success, and maybe even earn the owners some much-needed playoff revenue.
