Fletch 219 Report post Posted July 14, 2004 Backhand five hole like Alex Mogilny used to do a lot. It's pretty, and always gets a nice response from my teammates :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kosydar 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2004 That is actually the most flattering shot of the play I've seen. It cuts off before he pushes his linemates out of the way to celebrate solo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nic#19 0 Report post Posted July 15, 2004 He put the puck in the net. Man if i was that good and could do all those moves with such ease why not honestly. at the end of the day he made the most of where he was and put the puck in the net. hats off to him to have the balls to actually do it in a game and pull it off. I havnt seen when he celebrates by him self but thats not on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted July 15, 2004 If it was a tie game when he used that move, like Mike Legg, I might not have a problem with the goal itself. To do it when you're already up 5 or 6 goals is the definition of being a punk. The arrogance and selfishness of pushing away your teammates so you can celebrate at center ice by yourself is appalling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miracleman4 0 Report post Posted July 15, 2004 Thanks for the help Ill try some of the stuff you guys mentioned in my next game. As for what Crosby did Ive been seeing kids do that in Inline tournaments for years. Ive even done it myself in a tournament. I dont see it much in ice, but thats probably because if you do it in ice you will get beaten. But people have been doing that a long time before Crosby did it so noone should put the blame on him. Especially since people call it the Michigan because someone from U of Michigan did it in a college game. No one really said anything about it when that guy did it so I dont see what the big deal is about Crosby doing it. IMO hes an amazing player and if you can do stuff like that in games then do it.

Chadd 916 Report post Posted July 15, 2004 The first guy to do it in a game was Billy Armstrong of the Detroit Vipers, he taught Legg the move. Now, everyone can do it. I guess if you have enough skill, you feel like you don't have to pass.By the way, Legg's goal tied the game and they ended up winning. Crosby's team was already up 5 or 6 goals, there is a difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted July 16, 2004 I like that Balej move and will give it a chance next time I can, but I didn't think it phased that D too much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kosydar 0 Report post Posted July 16, 2004 Your right Eazy. I had some dead ice tonight so I pulled it while messing around with my buddies. They said that it doesn't fake them out fully, it just slows them down a little. I think it'd work better if you were playing strong side wing (left hand shot on left side of ice) on a two on one. That way it'd make it look like a pass more than a deke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted July 16, 2004 Definately, one on one, any quality D is pure chest, in that video he got kind've lucky and made the move as the D was extending he still didn't beat him, just got a little room to shoot. Nice move and all, just didn't work that well there IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

biff44 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2004 RE: Crosby's goal. I heard that he was very unfairly dumped on in the press for hot doging. The truth is he practiced that move very hard for over a month before using it when it was needed. Cut the guy some slack! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hockey22 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2004 in my 14u club league if i'am on a break or 2-1 ill bring the puck back like i'am gonna rip a high wrist shot, then release but keeping the puck on the ground and aim for either the 5hole, or either posts. its works well if there is a screen in front.
