There's a new contender for the "goal of the year" in the NHL this season. Philadelphia Flyers forward Owen Tippett scored a sensational goal that helped his team defeat the Dallas Stars 5-1 for the team's fifth consecutive win on Thursday.

With the Flyers leading the Stars 4-1 in the third period, Tippett was able to put the game away. He raced into the offensive zone with the puck, completed an impressive spin-o-rama move around Stars defenseman Joel Hanley, and lifted a backhander over the shoulder of Stars goaltender Jake Oettinger.
