Unquestionably, the Detroit Red Wings are one of the most talented squads in the NHL. A heavy influence of European skill has produced a steady stream of highlight reel goals, including this one that plays out with pinpoint passing and a gorgeous finish by Pavel Datsyuk.

Alex Ovechkin isn't the only Alex on the Washington Capitals that can shine on the highlight reels. Some say that Semin may atually have more skill than his Russian teammate. Regardless, in this clip it's clear, Semin more than holds his own when it comes to scoring eye-popping goals.

Nik Hagman isn't generally known for scoring beautiful goals. Don't tell that to the Florida Panthers defence corps, though. After the moves Hagman puts on them, they'll be having nightmares of this Finn for years to come.
