As of this writing I have seven candidates for Goal of the Year...
1. Blake Wheeler does his Rick Nash impression with an 'I can beat every guy you got' goal.
2. Pavel Datsyuk splits the D and goes high to the AHL side.
3. Linus Omark's ridiculous between the legs top-shelfer (note: this was not scored in the NHL)
4. Bobby Ryan's Savardian Spin-o-rama
5. Evgeni Malkin's cheeky between the legs move at the All-Star game
6. Richard Zednik's outisde inside dangle.
7. Ville Leino's 1st NHL goal is scored while going backwards
Which is a nice enough list, if a bit heavy on the Severed Heads side of the ledger (Malkin, Ryan, and Leino).
So please forward me any contenders you have for the list so at the end of the year we can all vote on who has the GOY!
Rick Nash goes inside-outside-inside-outside-goal
ReplyDeleteVery, very nice - but ineligible as it was one of last seasons best - not this season!
