This one takes the cake for one of the most absurd comparisons in NHL history.
On Wednesday night, the Toronto Maple Leafs defeated the New York Rangers 3-2 thanks to a highlight reel overtime winner from Mitch Marner. (see below):
I'll admit, it's an amazingly skilled goal, especially to win the game for Toronto.
However, one writer for Leafs Nation took it a little too far, comparing the goal to Bobby Orr's iconic Stanley Cup-winner. He posted the two goals with the following caption:

For starters, one was in regular season game in January during 3-on-3, while Orr's literally won the Bruins the Stanley Cup.
