This should evoke some contrasting reactions.

Good pass or just a lucky dump? This should be silly.

He’s the master of the backhand pass. Hes done nicer passes in the past.

Drai is nutty

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Nice flip. And nice finish by that rich kid.

 

[tarheelhockey]

He looked right at Hyman and then passed the puck to him. Nothing lucky about it.

 

[Kane One]

That’s a great pass

 

[Stealth1616]

This is only lucky if Drai doesn’t continuously do this. Best passer in the league and it’s not really close.

Wish people would watch him play, you still get the “product of McDavid”garbage

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

thats the longest slowest pass i'e eevr sseen can't believe it worked. D seemed to have forgotten about Hyman, I bet his dad bought them off

 

[LokiDog]

Sorry you were expecting conflicting opinions… really not sure why. Draisaitl looks at his player and passes him the puck. Kinda hard to have differing opinion.

Classic Draisaitl

 

[Czechboy]

Hold on.. let me pull out a classic troll line here.lol

Ahem, clears throat...

'Tell me you haven't seen Drai play without telling me you haven't seen Drai play'

I'll see myself out.lol

He looked at Hyman for a few seconds and passed him the puck, what kind of contrasting reactions should we expect?

C'mon. You know why. Complimentary McDavid and Drai posts always draw criticism.

I'm pretty sure you were being facetious in your response.

Just wait. Trolls get baited. Post it, and they will come.

“Never, ever, pass it up the middle. Except Leon, Leon’s allowed to.”- coaches.

That's the Dallas Stars "cherry picker" play designed to stretch the zone.

Or whatever Sweden did to Canada in 2004. "Torpedo" play?
Whatever you wanna call it.

It's pretty deliberate and used by plenty of teams. Drai just made it look cool on his backhand.
