VIDEO: Sabres prospect Joel Armia beats Flames' Ortio with extreme toe-drag deke
Russell LaBounty / USA TODAY Sports
Buffalo Sabres prospect Joel Armia is currently on assignment with the Rochester Americans of the American Hockey League.
On Friday night, Armia played an eventful game against the Adirondack Flames, finishing the night with a goal, an assist, two shots and 17(!) penalty minutes in Rochester's 6-1 victory.
While Armia's personal score line was impressive, his third-period penalty shot goal was something really special. The Finnish-born forward, a first-round pick of the Sabres in 2012, pulled off one of the more exaggerated toe-drag dekes you'll ever see before flipping the puck past a prone Joni Ortio.
