I don't see elite offensive guys like Karlsson, Keith or Letang as 'danglers'.

Karlsson can do it very well and sometimes does but lately he been preferring to play safer and dangling is not safe.

 

[CanadienShark]

I don't know how you left Karlsson off. Letang either. Ghost is another great one.

OEL, Ristolainen

Subban is #1 for me, he beats ppl 1v1 with stickwork and edgework.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Definitely Risto. Kid has hands.

Letang will skate around people, but I can't remember seeing him try to beat a guy 1 on 1

Risto doesn't do it enough

Gards tends to pull a move when beating players or out skates them. Rielly just flat out out skates players, doesn't need to pull a move often.

Mike Green is actually pretty slick.

I've seen some pretty nifty stickhandling and dangles by him. I won't pretend to be an expert, so maybe I've just seen a disproportionately high amount of them by him.

No, Kris Letang definitely dangles. There's a reason why he's a regular in the shootouts as well and it's not his skating ability.

Myers I think

He has 4 NHL career goals, all with Calgary, out of 339 NHL games. It isn't working.

 

[Six Assets]

Karlsson can and has dangled but doesn't anymore.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Forgot Josi. He dangles on the reg.

He's always struck me as a player that relies more on his physical talent than smarts. From that, I think he's the kind of guy that can pull off some pretty crazy plays and dangles due to his physical talents. That's not a shot at him at all - one (smarts or physical ability) is not necessarily better than the other. It takes a combination of the both and obviously Letang has both, but I'm suggesting he relies more on his physical ability than his smarts.

Doesn't dangle often--usually uses body fakes--but when he does, it's pretty clutch











Eh, I guess most of those are still body fakes/shiftiness
