Goalie Mike Smith scores his first career goal!
With the Red Wings goalie pulled, Coyotes goalie Mike Smith shoots for the empty net with seconds remaining in the game. Fate is on his side as the puck slides over the line with just 0.1 seconds to go! The Coyotes sweep the season series against the Red Wings, 2-0. Final score of the game was 5-2.

Wow good for him. I like how he actually shot it and not just some random credit because the other team accidentally puts it in their own net.
How rare is a goalie goal?
Happens once or twice a year. So like 1 in 500 games maybe?
It's actually much less than that. Wikipedia has everything, go here for a list of goalies who have a goal - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ListX456Xof_g...464Xan_NHL_game
What a beauty. So lucky to beat the clock.
