Yeah seems like there's at least one or two per year. Still a sick move but I don't think it qualifies as a GOTY anymore.meh i dont find the between the legs goals as sexy as i used to

What this?
You're just flat out wrong if you think that's better than the OP's goal.
Exactly how I felt watching it. It was a slick shot but I actually find Ovechkin scoring from the same spot -even though *everyone* knows what's coming - to be more amazing. It's like watching a real life wizard.meh i dont find the between the legs goals as sexy as i used to

Absolutely, the Coleman goal is still the GOTY frontrunner.The Coleman one is easily the best I've seen so far. I usually don't like goals that have that chaotic element to them where it's from a random situation that they were just thrust into and created something out of nothing rather than a cleaner example of creating something for themselves, but that goal was crazy.
Between the legs goals are as overrated as ever, I see. People seriously need to stop calling all of them a GOTY candidate. It's really not that amazing. Just like this goal, nothing special. In fact, pretty weak for a between-the-legs goal. We see these moves in C-juniors already.
You beat me to the star power bias point....I've seen this before when an obscure 4th liner scores a pretty amazing goal and the reaction is mixed and tepid from many posters. Milano's goal will be one of the top 5 this season. He makes a very aggressive play with the puck to break in 1 on 2 and deposits a trick shot upper left in a 2-1 hockey game. Clutch.
To even compare Crosby's goal to this one show's a great deal of star-player bias. Crosby's goal wasn't even in his personal top 10 (which has some pretty amazing ones in it).
I do agree that between the leg goals aren't new anymore and they don't blow the mind like they used to, but this whole play and the finish is top 5 worthy.
Its like seeing a back flip on a motorcycle at the Xgames. Mehmeh i dont find the between the legs goals as sexy as i used to

Normally, when you see a back flip on a motorcycle at the Xgames, that motorcycle has just gone up a ramp.Its like seeing a back flip on a motorcycle at the Xgames. Meh
Also, idk if anyone's mentioned it yet but this is the 2nd time Esa Lindell got posterized on a through the legs goal...he was defending McDavid on his GOTY from last season.
show me video of thisNormally, when you see a back flip on a motorcycle at the Xgames, that motorcycle has just gone up a ramp.
Imagine it happening when that motorcycle is on a straightaway. Just all of a sudden, the rider flings their motorcycle up into the air and flips, without any other upward momentum.
Still "meh"?
If I had such a video of that particular event, I would. It's metaphorical. By dismissing this as "yawn, another between-the-legs goal", you're overlooking the bit that makes it actually impressive.show me video of this
