Blackhawks goalie Spencer Knight had an embarrassing snafu that led to a Jets goal

Things went from bad to worse quickly for Chicago Blackhawks goalie Spencer Knight during a game on Saturday against the visiting Winnipeg Jets at the United Center in Chicago, Ill.

With around two minutes remaining in the second period, Knight went behind the net to recover the puck. However, he couldn’t make a pass or clear it because his stick apparently got stuck in the boards.

Jets forward Mark Scheifele then swooped in to steal the puck before passing it to Kyle Connor, who one-timed it into the net for an easy goal as Knight was too late to get back in position.

The Blackhawks were still very much ahead even after Connor’s goal cut the Jets’ deficit down to two for a 4-2 score.

But that lead didn’t last for Chicago, as it got even more disastrous for Knight and the Blackhawks. The Jets would score two more unanswered goals in regulation to force overtime.

Then, after a scoreless OT, the Jets completed their comeback with Connor scoring the deciding goal.

Knight allowed four goals on 31 shots in the loss to Winnipeg, as the Blackhawks fell to 5-13-2 and lost their seventh game in eight outings.
