Zegras does it again

[Legionnaire11]

I'm shocked that he's only got 17 goals, it feels like he's on the highlight reel every other day. I'd have guessed he was closer to 30 at this point.

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

Svech was the first to ever do it in the NHL and did it twice before this kid was in the league. Anyone calling it the “zegras” is a fool

 

[north21]

Ha ha even had to go around Milano, my god this kid!

 

[Tofveve]

Wow man wow. Beyond astonishing that whole sequence.

 

[Ducks DVM]

Still hate those goals and think they should be disallowed. Player shouldn't be able to carry the puck on his stick, in his hand or anywhere.

…Torts?

 

[Ducks in a row]

I love seeing Zegras score such fun goals it is good for the sport,

 

[VanillaCoke]

Around Milano and still solidly into the net is pretty damn impressive and I doubt anyone else does that for quite awhile.

Going to be fun to follow who gets more of these goals svech or zegras

 

[PROGFAN66]

The most impressive part of this wasn't the lacrosse goal itself, it was the pure skill displayed on a combination of two scoring chances... the between the legs shot into the lacrosse goal. Skill plays come so naturally and instinctively due to his extremely high confidence in his skills.

I would add the getting the rebound off the initial shot which goes unnoticed in this play. I think opposing teams should know by now that when Zegras is behind the net is to put a body on him and the goaltenders need to read the play better as well.

People should stop complaining it's hockey if the guy scores the goal give him credit and if you don't want it done on you then defend it.

It's the way he picked up the puck in one touch behind the net without interrupting his skating that blows my mind. It's what makes this a goal. He got around to the net before most guys figured out he had the puck.

He feathered it onto the tip of his blade instantaneously

 

[Butch 19]

Wow man wow. Beyond astonishing that whole sequence.

agree. This is one of the best goals I've ever seen.

The first goal I thought, "yeah, nice goal," but this one is even better.

This is Mike Legg erasure and I simply won't stand for it.

 

[majormajor]

I like Jeff Marek's take.

Do you get excited for wrap-arounds? Because that's what that goal was, a wrap around.

 

[Leonardo87]

Didn’t think it merited another thread so will just bump this one, but another great goal from Zegras last night…

 

[MessierII]

Didn’t think it merited another thread so will just bump this one, but another great goal from Zegras last night…

Where is the great here? He just turned and shot?

 

[Master P]

Meh

 

[TGWL]

The goal is less impressive than the confidence this player has with the puck.

 

[TomppaKoo]

Mikael Granlund was the first to do it in an international level. Way before Svech or this new guy. It should be called a Granlund:

 

[TaLoN]

Torts' worst nightmare... even 7 year olds are doing it in games now!



Someone should teach that kid a lesson, shouldn't be skilling it up on other 7 year olds like that!

Torts would punch a kid if he had to. Don't make him have to.

He's already wondering why nobody has taken the kid's head off yet!
