Windsor Spitfires’ Josh Ho-Sang chips puck to himself, scores sick goal during 6-point day (VIDEO)

In case there was doubt, Josh Ho-Sang illustrated that he has some of the supplest hands in the NHL draft class of 2014 while sparking the Windsor Spitfires to a comeback win on Sunday, namely by finding a way to chip the puck to himself before scoring a goal.

Ho-Sang was one-on-one against the North Bay Battalion's Kyle Wood when he chipped the puck over the defender's stick, tapped it down and then roofed a shot over the shoulder of goalie Brendan O'Neill while falling down from the speed wobble. The goal got the Spits off the deck, as they rallied from a three-goal deficit to win 6-5 with Ho-Sang getting two goals and four assists. North Bay, mind you, has allowed the sixth-fewest goals in the 20-team OHL.

It's not too much to say Ho-Sang's moves are almost multifaceted as the 17-year-old's Chilean, Chinese and Jamaican lineage (with some Russian and Swedish thrown in). There are questions about how his overall game will translate to the next level, but the talent and the tempo he plays at as a second-year junior is endlessly entertaining.

The big afternoon moved Ho-Sang, who idolizes Hall of Famer Denis Savard, into 12th in OHL scoring with 70 points.
