Zuccarello the slippery magician

[ICanMotteBelieveIt]

What a goal. Great speed for someone who has always been told he isn't a very good skater, nice skills.

Still a very nice looking goal.

He is 35 years old but just keeps smoothing.

 

[Seiza]

Nice goal indeed. He really is the GNOAT.

I enjoyed Espen's style better. But Zucc is somehow a better fit for thr NHL.

I'll never enjoy 3-on-3. Too much ice.

Torts treated Zooks so badly as a NYR. Ever since Zooks seems to come up big vs him. Im thrilled for Zooks.

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

3 on 3 has a way of allowing most NHL players to look like McDavid.

Not to say Zucc isnt a great player.

 

[CookiesAndMilk]

That was some smooth skating and great mitts. Konecny looked extra lost there lol, almost feel bad for him.

Now the question is, how many real defenders would have stopped him?

 

[Weltschmerz]

Rangers gave him awy for this

For all the complaints about 3v3, it produces a lot of the NHL’s best goals.

Zucc has always had good edge-work.

 

[Cursed Lemon]

Zucc is the type of player I wish the Wings had right now. Dude just finds a WAY

A little nutmeg with my morning coffee

Nice

Like the way Zooks kicked his leg wide to protect the puck for the upcoming stick.

What is that?

He along with guys like Joe Pavelski and Ray Whitney have that incredible ability to get better with age. Really impressive.

Far more space and less defense, no wonder.

Here he only needs to best one defender to drive to the net.

Nice goal but 3v3 still is not a "good" hockey product to decide the second point. A very small step above the shootout.

It serves a purpose, though. Everyone just watched 60 minutes of classic hockey. The game has to end sometime, so they increase the amount of space to accelerate the conclusion. It's only a few minutes, ends the game quickly, and creates threadworthy goals. Everyone wins. Except the team that loses.

Except for the Flyers. Who have yet to figure out 1F, 2D doesn’t work with 3 on 3

Sweet puck watching by Konecny.

 

[Zats Muccarello]

One of my favorite players, stud

 

[Fjorden]

I can see that he is also a very decent soccer player, he played both soccer and hockey when he was younger. The dribbling, and the finesse.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Terrible goaltending but nice goal.
