Many terms are used to describe 6-9 defenseman Zdeno Chara.

Rugged, cannon for a shot, wingspan of a condor.

How about graceful?

The Boston Bruins pulled off a spin-o-rama that seemed to catch everyone by surprise, and it turned into a goal against the Florida Panthers on Sunday afternoon.

SUMMARY: Bruins 4, Panthers 1`

"6-9, and he's a ballerina," shouted Bruins play-by-play man Jack Edwards.

Boston's Brad Marchand had set up Chara for his typical 100 mph-plus one-timer, but the shot wasn't there, so Chara spun to his right in a move that was made famous by 5-10 Denis Savard.

Being 6-9, Chara went from the blue line to the top of the faceoff circle by the time he completed the 360 past Panthers rookie Jonathan Huberdeau. Then it was a matter of putting a backhander past Florida goalie Jakob Markstrom.

It ended up being the game-winning goal.
