Though his dreams of figure skating were dashed, his pirouette shone at the most unexpected of times. Perhaps someday...
KnowltonNash
But he missed on the roundhouse...

Can't sling a puck like that. Also he doesn't have a helmet on :D
bdawg55
Always upvote NHL 16- oh wait.
FoamyMushroom
To finish off, I seriously thought he was about to kick him in the head.. "Fuck yo goal and yo face!"
Jazka
ARE YOU FUCKING SORRY

The little pirouette after release is lol.
Badlyphotoshopedconfucedfloofygiraff
Jupp, lining up a throat slash in case the goalie attacks in frustration.
NiceLegsDaisyDukesMakesAMAAANOUTOFYOOOUUUU
That is some Mighty Duck shit right there.
Rozasharon
That's the follow thru, amazing balance.
RinnelSpinel
Wasn't this from a KHL All Star game skills competition?
NotYourFathersArgyle
Yup!
adelwolf
That was a thing of beauty right there.

My 9th grade teacher did this in a game once. He's from a Canadian family.

Burn the witch!!!!

Phuck me
IneegoMontoya
is that a legal shot?
JanosXyn
Yes, but not advisable in an actual game. But scoring a goal like this doesn't break any rules.
Chrishopkinsvball
Why is it not legal, just curious
IneegoMontoya
I wasnt sure.... which is why I was asking.

You can "sling" a puck. Its just not practical

That's shootout rules. In play backwards doesn't matter. But you can't cradle/sling the puck anyway to do it.

Ah. Indeed I know absolutely nothing on the kontinental hockey league, therefore I accept your statements as truth.
DrSunglasses
No. This is from a skills show, the NHL version of a dunk contest, hence the 2 cameramen on the ice.
EhhACanadian
As far as I'm concerned it's completely legal. As long as his stick doesn't go above the crossbar. I could be wrong though.
MaverickEsq
I think the only thing not legal about it is he lifts his skate too high during the pirouette after.

Whoops, my bad, NHL ruled against slinging a few years ago. Derp.

Oh look it's this gif again...

Dangles like grandpas nutsack.

I laughed so hard to this...Dirty fucking dangles bra!

Thank you for shopping at Doug's Dangles, please come again.

..screamed the stable boy
FoxyEllie
Not a knuckle-puck, but it'll do
NegativePositivePrimitive
How is it allowed to lift a puck with a stick?
lkat
It clearly isn't a real game.. Looks like skills comp
youveseenmydownstairsmixup
Its very much legal in regulation time as long as the stick doesnt go higher than the crossbar. Not legal in shootouts I believe.
mobiusplane
Because it puts the lotion on its skin
frosty172
Because it's hockey and instead of whining about it being unfair, it's used to push people to improve themselves. That's how you get better.
robotzombies
Hockey still has rules. Remember that thing called high sticking? Hooking? Holding? There's even an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.
frosty172
These are all things to protect players. You want a rule to protect the goalie from the puck?
NegativePositivePrimitive
I'm Canadian. I know hockey. It's still stupid.
frosty172
OH! I know this game. This is '2 truths and a Lie', isn't it?
NegativePositivePrimitive
Hockey is great. But lifting the puck is what I meant.
frosty172
you might see it as stupid, but it's not against the rules
TheNerd484
How to Canada, step 197.

As someone who plays goalie, I'm so annoyed when people try these shots... because 9/10 they go in.
Machi4vel
In penalties, the puck is not allowed to get backwards; get the referee check
JackieTreehornProductions
as a coach, I hate when my players waste legit breakaway chances in scrimmage and try this crap.
TrapsAreIllegal
Move out of the net, they won't be able to adjust
MassiveMaoMao
As a former goalie, a feel you...that and breakaways.
RyNinDaCleM
I blame the D...
JM2DC
Or your shitty winger who always makes dumbass passes.
mistahpants
Yeah but we also get to see the premature celebration on folks faces shatter when we drop the puck out of our trappers :)
AnalChain
Are we still talking about hockey ?
EhhACanadian
Yessir
EhhACanadian
Do people call the glove a "trapper"? Is that still a thing?
mistahpants
I'm an old man ;)
EhhACanadian
Literally clears everything up
Carnot
Tell us your stories wise one!
mistahpants
why in my day we'd wear an onion on our belt, but not a white onion, on account of the war...
MrAquaRoscoe
What else do they call it?
EhhACanadian
Glove is the new term really. Trapper is what they were originally called. It's just strange to me to say "trapper"
