    Imagine a guy getting dual positions: goalie with any skater spot in a league counting points by goalies. That's an off-night bonanza.

    I was really looking forward to trolling all my Leaf fan friends this morning... but given the beat down my Bruins suffered last night, I guess I’ll bite my tongue.

    Great story though, has to be a highlight of Ayers life for sure!

    Am I missing something though? How did he get the win? They were up 4-1 when he came in and they won 6-3....

    They were up 3-1 and scored the fourth goal right after he entered the game.

    Turns out the Leafs didn't even have to trade for Jack Campbell. They had their guy in house all along!

    On a serious note, they've apparently sold over 1000 of his shirts with a portion of the proceeds going to the kidney foundation. Ayres needed a kidney transplant back in 2004, which he received from his mother.

    The Canes are flying him in to their next home game next week to sound their siren as well.

    How can you beat this story. Good for him.

    Man this story is awesome. Some more fun facts:
    -Ayers is the first ever Emergency Goalie to earn an NHL win!
    -Apparently the Canes were having a fit after they learned the emergency goalie was a Leafs employee. In-between the 2nd and 3rd periods they were apparently asking if they could sign someone else?!?
    -Rob Brindamour's post game speech was something special.
