 HTR Feature Article: Best Hockey Goals Ever

Opinion Alex Ovechkin - ICONSMIbbruins37 writes "I decided to put together a top 10 video of what i think are the best ten goals scored in hockey (NHL, CHL, International, or anything). The criteria is only how "nice" the goal was, menaing that when it happened is irrelevant (ie. you won't be seeing Bobby Orr's cup-winner against the Blues, or Hull's cup-winner against the Sabres). The goal can come either in-game, a penalty shot, or in a shootout





10. Corey Perry, London Knights - Completely undresses defender...twice.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9GQ5_h1efc (1:36 in)

9. Mario Lemieux, Team Canada - Heads-up play by Lemieux to let Kariya score.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qb7M9JVnPO4

8. Maxim Afinogenov, Buffalo Sabres - Ridiculous 360 goal.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VcAKESMi_E

7. Steve Yzerman, Detroit Red Wings - No-look, falling down pass.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rugKYDY2Uw (5:08 in)

6. Linus Omark, Team Sweden (I think) - Unbelievably creative shootout goal.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_X5FdpsWpg

5. Rick Middleton, Boston Bruins - Skate-to-stick goal.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rugKYDY2Uw (2:54 in)

4. Bobby Orr, Boston Bruins - Elbow pass.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lv0-9Wi713o&feature=related (0:42 in)

3. Pavel Datsyuk, Detroit Red Wings - The Datsyukian Deke.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_jD2ZCmSas

2. Jaromir Jagr, Pittsburgh Penguins - Unreal Hand-eye.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDX0pxdidB4 (2:40 in)

1. Alexander Ovechkin, Washington Capitals - No explanation needed.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzbmI6-YSnQ

I'm sure there are plenty of goals worthy of being on here that I left out, so if you know of any, just post them."

I dont know where on the list but I would throw in Marek Malik's SO goal a few seasons ago.

Also, on that Jagr top 10 list, the #1 was also pretty ridiculous.

One of the greatest goals I've ever seen was Lemieux's famous 1 on 2 goal against Minnesota in the '91 Cup Final.

Watching Lemieux motor through the neutral zone, he looks like he's propelled by rockets. Then he dekes both defencemen and the goalie, Jon Casey. 

Lemieux's performance in the '91 and '92 playoffs was pretty much as good as it gets.

I don't have access to YouTube on this computer, but I remember most of the goals listed.

Wasn't the Middleton goal against Quebec? I believe it was the 1982 quarter final, if I recall. Quebec had just upset Montreal in the first round on an OT goal by Dale Hunter. Then Quebec upset Boston is 7 games, with the last game ending 2-1 at the Gardens.

I think that was the game Terry O'Reilly punched referee Van Hellemond in the face.  But then Quebec got destroyed in 4 straight by the Islanders. Haha!

Rick Nash' goal in PK 2 years ago looks a lot like Jagr's #1.

Nash's goal versus Phoenix is far and away the best goal
Toews goal against Colorado has to also be up their
And Ovechkin's goal against PHoenix is the most overrated good goal in the entire post-lockout era
I mean it was really sweet looking
but the luckiest dumb luck goal ever
But top 5 post lockout goals
5. Bobby Ryan Spinorama
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLhjoo8jkoE

4. Ovechkin Falling Goal
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzbmI6-YSnQ

3. Sedin Backhand shot over the close side of the goalie
I can't find a link anywhere but it was when one of the sedins came in on the right side agains a defenseman and backhand flipped the shot over the shoulder of the goalie who was pressed against the post.

2. Toews Through Avs Defense
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5Vkd3ECeUY

1. Nash Embarrasses Phoenix Defense and Goalie

Where would everybody put Rick Nash' goal in the World Hockey CHampionships? Because I think that was pretty sweet, not sure that it should be on this list, though.

can't find a clip of it on youtube, but Lemiuex scored an amazing goal against Boston early in his career.  He completely undressed Ray Bourque.

some nice goals posted there!

And Leafy, you posted some good ones too, everyone on here has actually.

Here is my favourite all time, classic Stevie Y 1989 vs the Blackhawks, he dekes out everyone and one guy he beats twice. lol
