Reaper 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2005 That was an awesome move. Maybe if the rest of the other team is dead or in the penalty box I'll get a chance to try that one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbettner66 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2005 true, its not often that you get a chance to do a move like this - if u tried something fancy like this in a normal game and missed you might get benched or something for trying to show off - and even before that you have to get a blatant breakaway to have time for a move like that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neno_41 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2005 this is the clip of datsyuks goal on turco...as you can see it wasnt on his forehand...he did a backhand heel drag then back to his forehand. Datsyuk also tried it a couple of games after but the goalie was expecting it. datsyuk goal on turco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbettner66 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2005 well the other post was in the ice hockey section - but they moved it over here - if i could delete one of them i would :(on a side note i guess you can sorta compare the 2 moves - but i would say that datsyuks wasnt really a backhand toe drag - he just pulled it back really quicklyeither way i still just like watching them - i dont want to argue over them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted January 22, 2005 I am sorry, but I do not think that Datsyuk move was anything special. Turco was out too far and played it like a fool. He sold him on the fake, after that all he did was shift the puck around him. The actual skill for that lies in the sell and puck bag between the pipes. I honestly don't believe Roloson was "expecting" the same move, I just think he was ready for the breakaway (which I don't think Turco was). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EBondo 233 Report post Posted January 23, 2005 I agree with you Eazy, basically it looks like he tried to just bring it back a last time and got it on the heel, I like the other one better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
headonaswivel 1 Report post Posted January 23, 2005 Practice. This one is nice but really not that tough. Datsyuk's is far tougher because of the edge he skates on his outside skate in transition of the puck to the backhand. This one is just nice cause you never see anyone bust it out, but its not difficult. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neo5370 132 Report post Posted January 23, 2005 I don't think actually executing it is that difficult for even an intermediate player, but having the creativity to think it up and actually pulling it off in a game/shoot out situation is the difficult part.

Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted January 23, 2005 The reverse to drag is difficult to do at full speed. I first heard of it a few years ago when my friend came back from Finland he saw alot of the guys he played against use it in games. Its actually fairly difficult to execute at full speed.

stix04 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2005 I can do datsyuk's move easily, and im not too light on my feet. The reverse toe drag is MUCH harder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Borsch 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2005 Just so that you know -Datsyuk does backhand toe drag quite frequently too, it's one his trademarks. When turning left (around a defender who is to his left) he shows the puck to a D on a backhand then backhand toe drags it into his skates and then out onto his forehand. Seen him do that a few times, last time - last week in a game Dynamo- CSKA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sweetblazer 0 Report post Posted January 24, 2005 I find that the backhand toe drag is a lot easier than the datsuyk..not sure why, but the Datsyuk is my "Number 1" move and i do it 99% of the time....when I did the backyhand toe drag today in practice I could do it no problem...in any case i'm sure it justs depends on the tyoe of stickhandler you are.

Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted January 24, 2005 I do not disagree with that at all. I just think if I am coming in I will try do something similar if not exactly the same as Datsyuk a million times over before I would even attempt a reverse toe drag and yes, I am able to do both of those.
