VIDEO: German league player scores mind-bending goal

Louke Oakley crammed enough dangles to fill an entire highlight reel into one goal during a game of lower-tier German league hockey.
The 25-year-old Canadian already has 49 goals in 36 games playing for EV Regensburg, but the goal he scored against Blue Devils Weiden might be his best one.
Oakley took a pass off his skate while crossing the blue line, but he corralled the puck on his backhand before sliding it between the legs of a defenseman - all with one hand on his stick. He nearly lost the puck after that move but kicked it back to his stick in time to deke between his legs and score on the overmatched netminder.
