@janzzzssson nah theres only one player shooting they flipped screen cause if you notice kolzig is catching right handed in a couple shots which hes actually a left handed catcher so they flipped the screen
actually they just used a video program to flip the video so thats why it seems like theres 2 different players and goalies
@ESSALLA7 green used a phantom stick
They should have had a goalie like brodure or luango
Green has Vapor XXXX skates not U+ skates
Ovechkin And Green
@JanZZZSSSon there was two shooters for sure cuz
ovechkin had white ccm v10 stick, ccm v10 gloves and ccm U+ skates
shooter 2: reebok 9k gloves, easton CNT(blue stick) U+ skates…jus taught i would clarify things
there is 2players who shot in the video, 1 ovechkin and 2 the player who stands left on olaf when thay are looking on the camera, ovechkin hade 1 white stick and 1 blue/black and player 2 had a blue/black stick. like ratata8 wrote, one stick is for lefthanded players but ovechkin is righthanded.
Olie and Ovi forever!
Kolzig was the MAN.
haha, at 1:50 kolzig is lookin at the camera like ‘wow that is so cool!’
yeah i did see that
i totally agree with u man. im a goalie, and i agree that a wrist shot is way easier to read.
Look at the Toyota add behind him at 2:36. It’s backwards. They obviously just flipped some of their shots to keep the camera angle consistent.
Reflexes aren’t so important for a goalie, now days skating skill is more important so (As Olie wisely stated) you can take more of the net away, reposition for rebounds and have minimal shot reaction movement. The hardest thing for a goalie though is the mental aspect, your peers succeed 90% of the time, and even if you surpass that it will all be forgotten if you let in too bad a goal, and Then 21 000 fans are on your back. Even football (soccer) PKers don’t have so much pressure.
because its fake, ovies not shooting and at one point he has a lefty stick -_-
wow. why is that?
118.3 mph. Former star Bobby Hull, who played from 19571972 and 19791980, reportedly blasted the hardest slap shot in league history.
thats what i found
so you were both in error, but dont take it bad XD
zdeno chara has the 2nd fastest shot in the world. 2 days after he shot 105.4 someone in the ahl skills comp shot 106.2
1: nobody has ever hit faster then a 105.4 thats the fastest recorded shot in the world at the moment and its held by Zdeno Chara the current Captain of the Boston Bruins.
2: Slapshots never telegraph where the puck is going, if you think this youve never played goalie in your life. wrist shots are easier to read because you can watch the rotation of the persons wrists/forarms to see if they are going left/right or high/low.
i noticed that too wtf!?
well what do you say… they don’t relly care and switch it throughout the video
hey look at 2:32 and 2:35 Ollie suddenly turns into a right catching Goalie!
