It was Vladimir Tarasenko versus three Toronto Maple Leafs, and in such a fashion few can pull off, he won.
Just 20 seconds into overtime, the St. Louis Blues' sniper accepted the puck in stride in the neutral zone before evading three opponents, and ripping the game winner past Frederik Andersen.
The eye-popping tally was Tarasenko's 26th of the season, and gave the Blues their fourth win in five games under head coach Mike Yeo.
