Voracek

[illpucks]

All assists! He was killing it out there! His last assist was quite something. He did everything.

Gif of the amazing selfless assist.

Great stuff

Giroux has 2-2-4 as well. Nice game by both, Leafs were not good

Gif Added. Thoughts?

Is the assist in the .gif the AOTY you're referring to, or just one of his four assists?

The AOTY. Because he keeps going and going.

That's some **** Jagr did.

*HIPSTER MOMENT* I've always loved Voracek. One of my favorite players in the league. Big skilled wingers like him are a treat to watch.

 

[Makar Goes Fast]

umm he made a nice deke, but that pass was just a pass off backhander... no way AOTY.... for assist of teh year i wanna see a sauce over a few sticks through some legs on a stick for a tap in.

 

[DanZ]

That was not close to the assist of the year.

True, its not super glamorous. But he goes end to end and dominates the defenseman and puts it on a tee for Laughton. Considering that it is a very hard play to execute, it should be up there.

Why oversell it? It doesn't have to be THE ASSIST OF THE YEAR!!! It was a great play and that's enough. Now you're going to get a thread of people crapping on it.

Good point. I'll modify it a bit.

lirl assist of the year

Voracek is amazing player. If the Flyers somehow make the playoffs he has a legitmate shot at the Hart.

 

[member 202355]

Best winger in the league IMO.

 

[Braunbaer]

Why is this selfless?
I didn't see him pass on a sure goal.

lirl assist of the year

I changed it so people can appreciate the play for what it is.

I realize it is not flashy so people will not like it as much.

For flashiness Nash has the AOTY AINEC, but the amount of work that Voracek did to make that play happen should not be discounted because it is less flashy than this

(which I consider the AOTY for how it looks)

 

[FlyTimmo]

Best winger in the league IMO.

He has a very legitimate case to that title. His pace might eventually slow down a little, like to PPG, not 100+. Going just off this season alone, I don't think anyone else can be effectively argued over Voracek.

That's the AOTY? lirl again...neither of those are even top 3 imo.

Rick Nash is the only player you could argue over Voracek for this season. Overall, Jake is the better player and he looks to be consistent this season.

 

[StrangeVision]

Selfless assist?

¿Que?

Tanner Glass says otherwise.

What are 3 better ones? (The Nash pass, not the Voracek pass)

Tarasenko too probably.
