All-Purpose Hockey Thread II

My mistake

 

Ovechkin still has the upperhand. A little more agility to put the puck in from his backside. Still haven't figured out how he did it.

 

I'll go with the Crosby goal because it was pre-meditated.

He went down on his knees to "get a better view of the puck" and when it was beyond his reach, he stretched out AND put it over the goalie's stick.

But it's probably 1A and 1B.

 

God damn, that's a pretty goal. :-*

 

Bump from page 2 for the Flames vs. the Wild -- no Iginla and no Kobasew on the lineup. Also no McCarty, no Regehr and no Nilson. That's a lot of booboos.

 

Prett soon they'll be looking to Kipper to not only stop the puck but score for them as well.

 

He is pretty good with the stick, you know.

 

He doesn't quite have the Roloson baseball swing down yet though, I don't think

 

23 seconds Crosby opens the scoring on the Bolts, semi-on his knees again.

 

You beat me to the punch. Watching him nightly, it's almost scary to think he's this good at only 19.

 

Crosby is so omnipresent in Canada and has been in the public consciousness so long here, it's easy to forget how young he is.
