Crosby GOTY?

If not it's close to GOTY

The benning goal is nice but not near what crosby's was. Benning's was a single baseball shot/sling off a back. Crosby's was a double tap while beating the goalie.

Don't get me wrong. I agree with you. It was amazing. But to say he's the only guy capable of doing that is just ignorant in regards to the talent level that it takes to make it to pro hockey. I've seen a few goals like that in beer league over the years(there are some absolute studs playing beer league in Chicago).

I watched a couple guys who played junior A hockey juggle a puck in the air between them, from around the blue line in, and score without the puck touching the ice, in an alumni game this year. There are a lot of really, really talented hockey players in the world.

This is an AHL guy....

Plenty of people are capable of a lot of things, doesn't mean they do them. Tavares is the only other similar goal where he is purposely directing the puck in the air to set himself up for a goal. Tavares' goal is legendary.

None of these highlights people are posting are close to the difficulty of Crosby's. I haven't seen anyone in here make a suggestion about a better GOTY so far.

Brandon Montour is a good NHL player too FYI. Even though that video is completely irrelevant to the discussion.

Not close? What are some better ones?

Seems like I have been missing out on some incredible goals.

I find it even more impressive because it wasn’t like he just hit a rebound in with good hand eye. The first time he knocks the puck up to himself, it feels all premeditated. Like he says “let’s see if this will work” knocks it up once then swats it in

 

[Nadal On Clay]

You can literally say the same thing about both lmao

Not at all lol

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

What is better than that this season? Show me.

The Kucherov no move goal on Holtby.

-Post it

This is quite similar, but hits the ground first though.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

He's pretty good, eh.

People are so embarrassing when threads like this or milestones get posted. If you don't like a player, scroll on. It's not that hard.

Who doesn't like Crosby?

That was nice, but not in the same class as Crosby.

Let me guess. It was score by a Leafs player?

I see what you did there.

Yeah, Crosby's is definitely more impressive.

I'm not sure what you are getting at? I said his is likely the GOTY, but if Not, it would be really close.

Take your blinders off and actually read a post [mod].

 

[John Matthews]

Not sure how this compares to other candidates, but this goal was sick

Its 100% gotta be between Crosby and Henrique for GoTY.

 

[John Matthews]

obviously im missing some but theres

All nifty goals, but did you swipe it twice out of mid air after you bounce passed it to yourself off a team mate? Didn't think so.

 

[Pengwins]

Lol at posting the McDavid rebound goal he tapped in out of mid air in this thread. Not even close to as good as Sid’s

 

[Seb]

Worst part is he made it look so easy... Disgusting

 

[dr robbie]

Love the Josh Bailey goal. Ridiculous. I don't think the others are better than Crosby's.

Have to agree. Both Crosby's goal and Bailey's are the top GOTY candidates for me.

 

[untouchable21]

Really nice hand eye coordination, but GOTY???? Not for my liking.

 

[crosbyshow]

Look at this guys...just unbelievable

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Really nice hand eye coordination, but GOTY???? Not for my liking.

I like Kucherov's goal better, but Crosby's was pretty decent as well.

Gotta try and make Oilers fans feel good about....something I guess??

That's how you pump their tires.

 

[JudgeandJury]

Great goal by Crosby, but Malkin's goal last night was tougher to pull off IMO.
