Hardy Sauter ,
Head Coach and Director of Hockey Operations at Idaho Steelheads Hockey Club in the ECHL.com once scored a goal that may well be THE LONGEST GOAL SCORED IN ICE HOCKEY HISTORY.
Hardy played for the Oklahoma City Blazers as a defenceman, and during a game on March 2, 2001, with lucky 13 seconds to go in the 1st period, Hardy slapshotted a puck from behind his own goal line the length of the ice. Guess what happened after after 2 bounces - YES THE REST IS HISTORY, it went in.

Sorry Hardy Sauter, your goal has been surpassed by Mark Visentin, a goalie with the Niagara IceDogs of the OHL. Visentin Scored his goal while closer to the boards then you were when you slap shotted your goal from behind the net. No Worries, We Love both you guys, and both goals are Awesome !
