Tarasenkos first was a beauty against the Wings last year.

If for nothing else, Chico's reaction.

epic celebration too

Eberle was my first thought and I'm sticking to it

I came her to post Bozak's but it's definitely Eberle's - I forgot about that one.

I don't get the Omark goal, he did a spin-o-rama with no defenders or anyone else on the ice at the blue line then shot it 5-hole. I think anyone on this board could have done that. You could certainly argue that we may not be able to score on a NHL goalie but the move was very simple.

im biased but i like toews first goal, its classic toews.

Man that Eberle goal is slick. What a pass by Vandy too. Just perfect weight.

 

[Choralone]

I'll never forget Robert Lang as a Kings rookie going end to end through all five players on the other team.

 

[Blufreezy]

Yes.

Is this the moment Kessel and Bozak fell in love?

Eberle. Happened against my flames.

 

[StLHokie]

Tarasenko had two beauties in his first NHL game on his first two shots of his NHL career. #2 was probably the better of the two though.

 

[Smokey McCanucks]

Eberle's was the first that came to mind.

 

[icekoob]

Toews. First shot=first goal.

 

[Rorschach]

Not sure if this counts but Gretzky's magic no look backhand.

 

[Jumpinjackflash]

That's a good one considering you couldn't pay him millions of dollars to do that in a sabres uniform

Do you honestly think this is better than Eberle's?

 

[sbet1998]

Toews. First shot=first goal.

Except you missed the post above where Tarasenko scored 2 on his first 2 shots.

I missed that. Had no idea. That's actually really awesome.

 

[dr robbie]

Lemieux. Easily.

Stolen from Bourque. Breaks away. First Game. First Shift. First Shot. First Goal.

Legendary.

Do you honestly think this is better than Eberle's?

Yes, without a doubt. Do you even know the context of the goal?

 

[Thierry]

Yes, without a doubt. Do you even know the context of the goal?

Yeah, it was cold war and stuff...

 

[FinRuutu]

Yes, without a doubt. Do you even know the context of the goal?

So the context makes it better?

Eberles was nicer and thats all there is to it. Lemieux first goal doesn't even go in the top 10.

It wasn't a spectacular goal or anything, but Nikita Kucherov did the same thing.
