Fleury allows a Draisaitl goal from the other end of the ice

[Arthur Morgan]

reminds me of Toskala

Couldn’t have happened to a goalie with a more annoying face than Fleury.

 

[Bruce Granville]

Unlucky with a really bad bounce on a slow rolling puck, but MAF put it best, " You stop, THEN play the puck."

there was also a GA on a pass that was going wide, but went in off Spurgeon's skate. Buncha sharpshooters, Edmonton.

Mr. Funny-Pranks-Man is getting ready to retire and is working his bucket list. He pranked the whole team while playing…check.

Lets in a babyshit soft goal
Still wins
#just Fleury things

He actually played really well in that game. His rebound control was a bit off, but he also hadn't played in 2 weeks. He made a fair number if great saves.

Obviously, that goal is hilarious. All things considered though, he earned that win 100%.

We thank Fleury for not messing up the Washington 2017 series but in reality, Murray won those cups. 2016, 100%. 2017, 90%.

Flower outplayed Holtby. That was the tough series. Ottawa shouldn’t have been a nail-biter.

Ottawa should have made the playoffs, but Ottawa will have to fight until the end. Placements 3-6 I am completely hundred on.

 

[Run the Gauntlet]

The Wild won the game. No big deal then.

Hope this burns a hole in your gut

Can’t watch. Sign in to confirm you’re not a bot.

Ok, so I guess embedding is done now?

 

[ghostingtaro]

thats 3 time cup champion fleury to you

 

[Empoleon8771]

Honestly that might be the worst goal against I’ve ever seen. That one is even worse than the Toskala goal.

Are you suggesting that there’s a time where he doesn’t look punchable? Lol

 

[Al Lagoon]

That will probably cost him his shot at making the Hall of Fame....

I am struggling to comprehend.

 

[JianYang]

This looks alot like brodeur in the 03 finals.

How? How is this possible? An insane bounce. On a fresh sheet of ice.

 

[pekka55]

Sure, the puck bounced, but that's why you don't try and one hand it away and leave your 5-hole all open. I was taught that when I was 12 years old.

These things happen though. Sometimes even pro's get a brain fart.

the bounce does not matter. its impossible for the puck to bounce past you if you approach this correctly.

you are NOT supposed to assume the puck moves as normal. you are supposed to prepare for all possible bounces. that's why you don't swing like a dumbass while leaving your 5hole all open. if you have it all covered, you can swing at it. That's an extra, but it's NOT supposed to be something that screws you over if you miss.

And yeah, as above, this is like, learned at 8 years of age.

You're doing it wrong-

When the puck is spinning that way it is making the least possible amount of contact—practically a pinpoint—with the ice at any moment, so any imperfection has the chance to affect it greatly (as shown).

 

[Nerowoy nora tolad]

Is anyone shocked this happened to the flower. This couldn’t happen to any other nhl goalie.

Kinda eerie, its like watching a mirror image actually. Right down to the forechecker kinda coming in hot if you dont sweep it away...

McDraiChard were pretty much invisible.

Is that organic and gluten-free?

Nothing beats this:

The thing with the Brodeur-whatever-the-f***-that-was-in-2003-goal, I can never figure out what his thought process was that made that unfold.

Doing his best Vesa Toskala impression

Honestly that might be the worst goal against I’ve ever seen. That one is even worse than the Toskala goal.

The thing about the Toskala goal, Im absolutely convinced somebody working the game wasn't paying attention and handed the official a warm puck (ie pocketpuck, which I'd assume NHL refs know not to do). It would explain so well how the puck is moving like its made of flubber.

Crease area is usually markedly worse than the rest of the rink for ruts and it takes more than one flood to get rid of a deep rut.

Skaters are more gliding over the rest of the ice and goalies are basically stomping hard into the blue ice before pushing. and modern goalies are usually doing it with 200+ lbs of weight and skates with deeper hollows and more bite.

 

[BertCorbeau]

That goal would make a great Lasik advertisement

No crazy bounce though

shades of playoff fleury right there

And yet, any one of us who plays goal has had this happen to them at least once. Anyone saying otherwise either hasn't played long enough, is great at the "forget it and move on" philosophy, or is lying.

Shit happens.
