Watch: Mitch Marner faked out Tuukka Rask so badly on this goal
Mitch Marner scored twice in the Toronto Maple Leafs’ Game 1 4-1 win over the Boston Bruins on Thursday night, and he embarrassed Tuukka Rask badly on one.
Marner had a penalty shot for the shorthanded Leafs in the second period. He deked Rask and had the Bruins goalie committing the wrong direction before putting it away:

The Bruins actually scored the first goal of the game, but Marner answered on a rebound in the first period to tie things. Toronto added two more goals the rest of the way to take the 1-0 series lead.
Marner, the No. 4 overall pick in 2015, had 94 points in the regular season and is already off to a strong start in the postseason.
