Barzal with incredible goal between the legs

[foggyvisor]

Best goal this year. This guy is awesome.

 

[Crazy Monkey]

Absolutely filthy

 

[Gospel of Prospal]

I think Mathew Barzal is now the official owner of the Buffalo Sabres. Sorry, Pegulas.

 

[Xerloris]

Not that impressive when you notice it was against the Sabres.

 

[max21]

I watched it live, pretty sick

 

[Amazinmets73]

Insane.

 

[SI90]

This kid is just a human cheat code sometimes. Just playing so unreal this year. Offensively and defensively

 

[The Winter Soldier]

You don't often see a player score a goal from between his legs and almost injure 2 players on the play. Hutton's groin, and Risto's back. Seriously, that is one the best goals I have ever seen.

 

[boredmale]

What’s most impressive here is there is no way he had any pre-planned thought of doing it. Completely instinctive

 

[SI90]

His skating ability is unreal. The way he stopped and changed angles on that. Wow

 

[Gospel of Prospal]

This kid is just a human cheat code sometimes. Just playing so unreal this year. Offensively and defensively

And it makes you wonder how a team didn't give him an offer sheet. God, I would love to be a GM just to break this unspoken rule about offer sheets.

Finally some good news for Sabres fans.

Eh against the Sabres, I thought Laf's laser beam wicked Fedorov-esque wrist shot was more impressive against the Devils. Also Kreider 2 hat tricks in a row. But nice goal, talented player beyond a doubt, I will not be looking forward to playing against him for sure. Sick goal, much respect. I am liking this Isles-Devils-Rangers rivalry heating up again, amirite??

 

[Riseonfire]

Maybe because it was such a high profile goal but it seems like since the Malik goal you see one of these every few seasons. I don't remember seeing these goals before that.

Best shootout ever AINEC

 

[Pure Slaughter Value]

Yep, Mat Barzal is definitely a top 60 center in the NHL.

I like where both franchises are at atm. Gonna be a cool rivalry in NY for the next few seasons

I agree but we also don’t know that a team didn’t. The player has to accept it. But I agree with you. It’s all fair game.

The funny thing I still remember that weekend the Knicks and Giants played all time great regular season games. It was one of the craziest NY sports weekends.

The best part of that shootout is the fact that it went so long with nobody scoring and then the announcing set up the goal perfectly.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

I give him a 9.5 / 10, half pt deduction for eh, it's just another goal Celly.

 

[13th Floor]

The between the legs is one thing, but everything before is nuts. Pokes the puck to a spot Risto can get to, then lifts his stick out of the way, and muscles a much bigger dude out of the way for a breakaway.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Meh, didn’t even lift the puck. 7/10 on the Malik scale

 

[JFleegs]

Wow awesome goal! Also like that dark blue better than what they wear now

 

[Bruce Granville]

Shouldn‘t count.
1. It‘s only Buffalo.
2. Risto is still recovering from Covid.
3. Hutton

There were actually two goals in the OT of the shootout before Malik that the Rangers answered one by a shitty defensive defenseman Strudwick.
