Tkachuk with GOTY Candidate

One thing's consistent in NHL: Uninformed people always value circus tricks way too highly.

Definitely thread worthy.. stick didn't look high, anyone have good still frame evidence?

Here's the video:



From this angle, whether that first hit was above the shoulder depends on how far in front of him the puck is, which is impossible to tell in this view. The second hit is pretty clearly below the bar.

Okay, definitely looks high here.. still sick

Incredibly hand-eye coordination but clearly a high-stick. A player with higher hockey IQ would have waited until the stick was below the bar to try that.

A Tkchuck and high IQ go together like oil and water.

nhl should just make it so high stick is above shoulders for everything. imagine chara having a goal waived off for batting a puck in above the xbar. its like at his waist. lol

Imagine Chara being allowed to have his stick swinging at the puck at everyone else eye level.

Debatable with the high stick but a beauty goal anyways. I remember we were talking if drafting Tkaturtle before Puljujarvi "dropped in our laps". Still kicking myself about that one.

Wow awesome.

high stick or not ..

Skilled play..
