Remember that Sioux Falls Stampede goaltender who celebrated in hilarious fashion after scoring from behind his own net back in November?
Well, the Winnipeg Jets gave him a three-year, entry-level contract Saturday.
Mikhail Berdin is the netminder who, as you may recall, did this:

Berdin went 24-13-3 with a .921 save percentage in 45 regular-season games for the Stampede in 2017-18. He allowed 14 goals in three playoff contests.
The 20-year-old Russian was a sixth-round pick of the Jets in 2016.
