Ruutu's goal was amazing. After he made all those moves you just knew the puck was going in, even with Marty in net. It made me remember some of the sickest goals I've ever seen.
1. Can't remember his name for some damn reason, and it's killing me. But he was 19 years old on the Soviet's Rendezvouz '87 team and he scored a crazy goal on Fuhr. I know he played - horribly to his talent level in the show - for NJ among others. Just a sick goal where he used his amazing hands in a small space around the goal line.
2. One of my favorite goals of all time, and off the radar of all time greats in a meaningful situation. '88 Oilers vs. Flames. Game 2 in Calgary. Oilers won game 1 versus, can you believe it now, favored Flames. Overtime and shorthanded I believe, Gretzky down the wall and with one of the greatest shots of all time. I do believe the water bottle had wood.
3. Gretzky batting the puck out of midair and beating Mc Lean glove side, in the slot, vs. the Canucks for a G.
4. Mario, actually this should probably be higher, figting off Bourque on a breakaway and roofing whoever in a playoff game against the B's.
5. Another underrated goal, but it was so good at such an imortant time that it's become the "Ron Brind'a'mour of the mid 90's" where it was so underrated that it became not underrated, sorry if I'm boring you. Messier vs. Isles (I think game 3).
Drove down right side, looked to cut in middle for a shot and Isles dman stepped up, brought back, around strong d, for an open snapper short side on Smith. Amazing goal in a clutch situation.
6. Insert here Ruutu's goal. These are all up for debate by the way. I want to know what you remember!
7. Can't believe I went this far. Bobby Orr vs. ?. Laying down on belly after being upended over blue line fed a pass around his falling legs to ? who beat tender from the right. One of the greatest plays ever.
8. Another underrated goal. Kurri (I think) from Gretzky. Versus Chicago in playoffs in the mid 80"s. Gretzky looks to enter zone, circles, throws a 80 foot backhand pass to a streaking player coming off the bench (Kurri?) who scores on a mini breakaway. I came out of my couch on that one.
9. Russians vs. Habs, sorry can't remember the year, maybe '76. Holiday night I believe. Retreived a puck in mid ice, just flying, jetted through the Habs D and scored. Fastest goal I've ever seen off a mid ice play.
10. Saw this one in real life. World Juniors in Anchorage '88. Some fat Russian with sick hands broke down the wall in his own zone. Beat 2 Americans before the blue line, then snapped a 45 foot wrister past the goalie like he was sinking a three inch putt. There were several high wranking GM's sitting near me and one of them stood up and said, "Holy &#(#".
Bring me yours.
