Goalkeeper “Washington » Charlie Lindgren who sent the puck into his own net during the NHL regular season game against Tampa, said he made the most serious mistake of his hockey career.
The meeting took place in Tampa and ended with a score of 5:4 in favor of the guests. In one of the episodes of the third period, Lindgren wanted to throw the puck behind the baseline, but accidentally hit his own goal. Own goals are not recorded in hockey; the goal was recorded against Tampa forward Brayden Point, the player on the attacking team who last touched the puck.
“Obviously, it’s the worst mistake I’ve probably made in my life, hockey-wise. » I don’t know what I was thinking. The guys supported me, I express my gratitude to them for that,” Lindgren said in a video interview published by the Washington press service.
