College Hockey Video of the Week (2/28/11): Mike Legg's Famous Goal

I know that everyone has probably seen this 100 times, but it's just so good that it had to be a CH Video of the Week once. Most people know this as the "Michigan Move" (because Legg played for Michigan).

The great thing about this goal was that it was scored in the 1996 NCAA tournament! This guy had the confidence to do this in a huge game, which is pretty amazing. Michigan was down 2-1 before he scored. Legg's goal helped the Wolverines beat Minnesota that night 4-3, and eventually led to a national championship.

Fun fact: The stick Legg used on the goal was donated to the Hockey Hall of Fame.

Now let's all give Legg a "mighty big hand." (Watch third video)
