Nice, but I'd rather see a good fight.

Re: in case anyone missed these two hockey plays
 

The OT goal is so money.

Re: in case anyone missed these two hockey plays
 

It should be pointed out that Marek Malik (in the first video) is:
a) a defenceman
b) has not scored all season, except that one in the shootout. He only got a chance because he was the 15th shooter for his team.

Why should that be pointed out? Does that for some reason make it not as sweet?

that first goal might be the most beautiful thing i've ever seen in sports.

I'm pretty sure the point there is that it makes it totally more sweet.

Somebody get poor Sheldon a towel....Spezza just undressed him like a high-schooler on prom night.

Interesting. I didn't know hockey had sudden death shootouts. The weird thing is that 90% of the fans didn't realize what had happened.

Why would you think that? It wasn't difficult to see what he did.

That move is standard operating procedure for most guys i've played with in practice and when we're goofing around; It's like the first oddball move every kid works on when they've mastered the fundamentals of the game. If you want to see how skilled these guys really are, watch an NHL practice. Your head will spin at what these guys can do when they're just goofing around waiting for their turn at the next drill.

I had a guy who would come skate in at full speed, then bend down and cup his stick over the puck, spin around 360, and the puck would come flying off his stick from about 4 feet off the ground. He'd picked it up on his stick in the middle of his spin.

Other guys can skate full speed and drop the puck from their stick to their feet and kick it back out the other side and backhand it top corner, all in a space of like 5 feet. Also is the popular flick the puck about two feet off the ice and slap it from mid-air before it stops rising.

I saw a guy put 7/10 off the crossbar from the blueline once.

Hockey rules... this thread should turn into a hockey highlight thread. I'm not good at finding them though. Did anyone see the save that Buffalo goalie Mika Noronen made a little over a week ago? There's been lots of good stuff this year.
