It wasn't quite from center, but the result was the same for Steve Mason.
The Philadelphia Flyers goaltender let in another distant shot Monday, this time off the stick of Washington Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin.
Mason may have been slightly screened by defenseman Radko Gudas, but the shot from just inside the blue line was the latest in head-scratching goals by the Capitals.
For Ovechkin, the goal gives him 72 career playoff points, tying him with Dale Hunter for the most in Capitals history.
