Rob Hisey can do tons of puck tricks and do you see him in the NHL? No. Yes, Schremp is skilled...but doing puck tricks doesnt get you far in the NHL.
No one said that this makes hi a sure fire NHLer. It just shows the kid has sick hands and lot of practice.
No, I just think you got front row seats at the Hater's Ball.
Hahaha, Hater's Ball, effin love it. Isn't it true though, every one has a hate on for Schremp except for oiler fans.
Marek Malik did a similar move, I suppose he's going to be an offensive dynamo pretty soon.
The move looked similar, but it is in no way comparable as Schremps was way more difficult to pull off.
he did once take a drink out of the opposing goalie's water bottle after a scrum in the crease though.
I loved that move, it was hilarious. Gets right under the goalies skin. I wonder how many he scored that game.
I don't think people are raggin on Schremp. I just think it's good to tell all you people that this move does not make him amazing. I can do it and I am a washed up Junior B player who plays in the Beer leagues now. Kids in Bantam and Midget can do it too. Anyone who is around alot of non-pro hockey knows it's not that big of a deal.
Now I will say, I wish Schremp was a prospect for my team for all the other things he can do in a real game.
This part makes your post more credible, but you have to admit his move was impressive and the kids doing it at 14 - 15 years old have sick skills too if they are pulling this off.
I'm just tired of hearing about him all the time, when someone makes a thread about Schremp they know the inevitable will happen, Marek Malik can do it, nobodys saying how amazing his hands are..
You wanna know what I'm tired of? People ragging on Schremp because he is amazingly talented. He has sick hands, he can shoot as good as anyone and he is a promising prospect. I am tired of people feeling bitter because their GM's passed up on him. I am tired of people that have never seen him play tell me (I have seen him play a number of times) that his skating is so bad he will never be a good NHLer and that his defensive game is so weak he can't play 5x5, people telling me that he is a puck hog even though he had 88 assists last season, not to mention he is an amazing passer and distributes the puck better then most NHLers right now. I am tired of people saying he is a problem child and has a terrible attitude. He was wearing an A in the rookie game because he is a leader and the team looks up to him, Mac T would not give it to him unless he earned. He has helped the non english players but slowly trying to explain the drills. He is the first on the ice and the last off the ice, he is a great guy to the fans. He has a winning attitude and he shows it on the ice. You wanna know what I am time of rallykiller? I am tired of the same old crap every week coming from posters every time Schremp does something to gain recognition people come up with reasons why he shouldn't. Let the kid play his game, hot dog, show boating or playing an entertaining style of game, whatever you wanna call it, I don't care but I am tired of all of the nay-sayers that have never watched him play trying to tell me he can't.
He was doing this in a charity shoot out. No during in a game, he knows that is high sticking and he knows he wouldn't do that in a game setting, he was having fun and giving us in attendance what we wanted to see.
But can these supposed rec hockey guys who can do a move that's so easy, do it in front of thousands of people with the cameras rolling, and their bosses in the stands?
Bet the answer changes...
It's amusing to see people so bent out of shape about what he did...hell, Schremp himself said he would never dare pull that move off in a game or even a shootout with points on the line, so what's the problem?
Never in my life have I seen a 25th overall pick get fans so polarized.
That is for sure.
