Watch: Canadiens’ Scherbak scores incredible goal in rookie tournament

It didn't take long for Nikita Scherbak to start turning heads in camp.

The Montreal Canadiens prospect scored a jaw-dropping goal in the club's rookie tournament opener Friday night.

Scherbak received a pass in his own end and carried the puck into the offensive zone. He went between his legs on the backhand, switched to the forehand, and scored on the Pittsburgh Penguins to give Montreal an 8-3 lead.

The 20-year-old Russian winger and 2014 first-round pick finished with three points.
