VIDEO: Amazing Assist Leads to Ryan O'Reilly's Opening Goal in Game 5
By Seth Carlson
Ryan O'Reilly would prefer not to see the city of Boston celebrate yet another championship this year. With the Stanley Cup down to a best of three between the St. Louis Blues and Boston Bruins, the Blues center scored the first goal of the game courtesy of an awesome assist from teammate and left wing Zach Sanford.

It seems like Sanford is trying to become the Patrick Mahomes of hockey with that no-look pass. The Blues can take a 3-2 lead in this series and push Boston to the brink if they can manage to hold on, and if they do, they'll be doing it with style thanks to this slick feed.
