Simon Benoit’s SHOCKING Overtime Winner Leaves Hockey World Stunned!
Simon Benoit just pulled off the unthinkable! The undrafted defenseman, with just two career NHL goals, became Toronto’s overtime hero in Game 3 against Ottawa. The entire hockey world was left speechless when Benoit, known for his physicality, hammered home the game-winning goal just 1:19 into overtime, putting the Maple Leafs up 3-0 in the series.
Benoit’s overtime heroics were a complete shock, especially considering his lack of playoff goals at any level. Despite this, Benoit’s determination and a perfectly executed play by Auston Matthews gave him the chance to shine. “I didn’t quite know how to react… just lifted both my arms and didn’t move,” Benoit humbly shared after the game.
