The thing about that shot is that realistically, there wasn’t any pressure on it.
It’s not like Gordon Bombay lost the game for the Hawks, he just didn’t win it.
Always seemed ridiculous that shot completely derailed his career considering they could have still won the game afterwards.
But this penalty shot from Wisconsin’s Kirsten Simms?
19 seconds left in regulation, down by a goal, this was now or never.
Wisconsin needed a hero, and Kirsten Simms knew right away that she could deliver the gals to glory.
She wanted the rock, and holy goddamn shit did she deliver.
All the pressure placed squarely on her shoulders, and THAT’S the move she pulls off?
What an absolute lunatic.
Kirsten Simms doesn’t feel any pressure, she strictly applies it.
She’s as clutch as you could possibly get.
This chick absolutely loves daggering teams in overtime.
Borderline addicted to scoring overtime game winners.
– Ohio State should just be thankful she didn’t Datsyuk them to death.
