Gretzky move

Recommended Posts

The Gretzky move that I remember is him coming down, faking like he was going out of the zone and doing a button hook and staying in.

I think it's how to cut the opposing captain's lip, avoid a penalty and score the conference series winner. Just kidding, still bitter.

According to the Smart Hockey DVD, the move is to go straight in on goal, drop the puck to your backhand foot, kick it behind your other foot up to your forehand, fake a shot, and pull it across to the backhand side and tuck it in.

I thought that was Paval Bure's move. Gretsky (sp) was a pretty sneaky player wished I seen him play more often but he is one of the older players I respect, left the game b4 his skill died out unlike messier.

I think what they are talking about is then Gretz used to go behind the back of the net, and when he'd reverse he'd bounce the puck off of the back of the net to himself, sorta like what Lecalvier did last game, and Cherry was talking about on Coaches Corner.

the "move" i was most familiar with was when he would be flying down the wing with the puck. just after he crossed into the zone he would stop and do a 360 and set someone up who was just entering the zone.

Yup. Of all his moves that was his most spoken of. That guy in the zone was usually Paul Coffey.

Thats the one I am most familiar with and have been taught in schools, The Gretzky curl.

Hahaha if someone tried that I would lay his @ss out b4 he could finish the spin but seriously that would have been crazy to see, noone now a days does spins anymore. Does anyone know what age Grets retired at? Just curious

I seriously doubt you ability to hit someone pulling off that move properly.

Gretz was right around 40.

There are two "Gretzky" moves, that are most well known... both have been talked about... One is the cut back, where hed do a 360 to illude a player and The one where her flys down the off wing, and at the hash marks fakes a shot, then puts one threw the five hole. (that is the one in the video).

Gretzky born Jan /61, retired at the end of the 98/99 season..was 38 at the time.

Most copied move: Tucking in one side of his jersey.

The move 360 is more like a curl rather than a spin. It's almost impossible to hit him there unless you've got him cornered and even then it's difficult. As a D your pulling yourself out of position to make the hit, as a forward your more than likely leaving your D open. The purpose was to sucker people in who wanted to kill him so they were leaving a man open. Whip, you just fell right into his trap.

wasn't gretzky's move when he'd go streaking down the ice along the boards and then put on the brakes all of a sudden and set some one up coming in late?

orr's move was the spin-o-rama, i know that for sure. anyone can figure that out by listening to don cherry talk about him and when other ppl do the spin-o-rama hahaha
