Wheeler Just Reacted On ‘Shorty’ Goal

via Brian Hunter of NHL.com,
(Blake) Wheeler had already scored a goal early in the first to give the Bruins the lead when he broke in with teammate Dave Krejci on Blues goaltender Manny Legace—or at least he thought. The University of Minnesota product ending up putting on a spin-o-rama move to notch his 11th of the season.
“I initially was looking to make a pass back to Krejci,” Wheeler said. “He kind of abandoned me. He went off for a change and the only thing I could do was react. There was a guy coming at me and I just kind of reacted. I got lucky.”

Sensational goal.
If that’s “just reacting,” I’m curious to know what kinds of moves he practices.
Nice to see the Blues get B**ch slapped like that too
