Michael Frolik says he used a move he learned while playing in the Czech league during the lockout on Monday's game-winning penalty shot.
Frolik got Jimmy Howard to go down before roofing a backhander into the top right corner of the net. It was a beautiful shot that put the Hawks up 4-2 midway through the third period. There was debate as to whether Frolik deserved the shot after Carlo Colaiacovo was whistled for a slash on the Chicago winger, who was a step or two ahead of Colaiacovo and breaking in on Howard. For his part, Colaiacovo said he was "surprised" the referees awarded Frolik the penalty shot.
