The Carolina Hurricanes' unlikely run to the conference finals in 2009 may not have happened if it weren't for Jussi Jokinen's heroics.
In the opening round of the playoffs that year, the sixth-seeded Hurricanes were pitted against the third-seeded New Jersey Devils. With New Jersey leading the series 2-1, Jokinen scored the game-winning goal in Game 4 with 0.2 seconds left on the clock in the third period. It stands as the latest regulation game-winning goal in NHL playoff history.
