Russian hockey player Vladimir Tkachyov pulled off a trick shot never before seen in hockey.
Tkachyov, who plays for Hockey Club Ak Bars Kazan in the KHL, flipped the puck up onto his stick blade and just threw his entire stick at the goalie.

Absolutely genius move by Tkachyov because it operates in that perfect gray area of something that should clearly be illegal but isn’t. (SLIDESHOW: Derek Jeter’s New Wife Loves Showing Off Skin)
I’m going to be very disappointed if I don’t see at least one shot like this in every NHL game in the upcoming season.
