Minnesota’s Abbey Murphy was recently named to represent Team USA in Milan at the Winter Olympics.
The Minnesota forward showed the world why on Saturday with an incredible assist to teammate Bella Fanale to set up the Gophers’ second goal in 4-3 victory over Minnesota State.
Late in the first period, Murphy skated down the ice late and floated the puck in the air, through a Maverick defender’s legs and back to herself before dishing it to Fanale for a goal.
The play was described by the internet as sick, disgusting and just plain unfair.
Murphy has 50 total points in 22 games this season with 28 goals and 22 assists. The Gophers are 18-4 and on a six-game win streak.
