At 16:56 of the second period, Subban skated through the neutral zone and unleashed a slap shot from center ice. The shot sailed off the glove of Canucks’ goaltender Anders Nilsson to give Nashville a 3-0 lead.
The tally marked Subban’s second goal of the game. It’s also the second time that Subban has netted a goal from near center ice. In Jan. 2016, Subban — then with the Montreal Canadians — beat Columbus Blue Jackets goalie Joonas Korpisalo in a similar fashion.
It goes to show that no matter where Subban is on the ice, he will find a way to put the puck in the back of the net.
