Even Marcus Sorensen can’t believe he just scored this goal

Marcus Sorensen opened the scoring for the San Jose Sharks in their Game 4 against the Vegas Golden Knights Wednesday on an incredible individual effort.

Is San Jose Sharks forward Marcus Sorensen the best fourth-liner in the NHL?

Maybe.

So far in the 2018 NHL postseason, Sorensen has made the most of his shifts on the ice. With his goal Wednesday night in the first period of the Sharks’ Game 4 against the Vegas Golden Knights, Sorensen improved his playoff production to four goals this postseason.

The Shark Tank went nuts as Sorensen beat Alex Tuch and waited out Golden Knights goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury before flipping the puck in as he fell to the ground on an incredible individual effort.

According to SportsCentre, only two Sharks rookies have had more goals in one playoff year: Logan Couture (with seven in 2011) and Joonas Donskoi (with six in 2016).

Given the pace he’s been on — and how far the Sharks can go — it’s entirely possible that Sorensen matches or perhaps even exceeds those marks this postseason.

Though Sorensen had only five goals in 32 games in the regular season, he’s stepped up his efforts considerably in the postseason. He posted three goals and four points in the Sharks’ series against the Anaheim Ducks, and while some wondered if he was benefiting from a weak opponent, he’s keeping it going against the white-hot Golden Knights.

At this point, the Ottawa Senators are no doubt regretting letting the 26-year-old forward slip away unsigned after the drafted him in the fourth round of the 2010 NHL Entry Draft.

As for the Sharks, however, Sorensen’s spot on the roster seems pretty safe, especially if he keeps this up.
