What is your favorite type of goal to watch?

I’ve always been a sucker for quick wristers on breakaways and big shooters from the point / circles. (And now you understand my love affair with Bure and Hossa )

I'd say breakaway because it gets the fans out of their seat and you're all on edge
One timers are very satisfying too though

“Kaberle, to McCabe … Score!!!”
“Redden, to Alfredsson … top shelf!!!”
“Palffy, to Blake … Score!!!”

And it goes on and on

Goalie goals

 

[NYRFANMANI]

tough one, can't make my mind up entirely.

#1 tic-tac-toe: That one against Ottawa, where Zibs scored. Pretty much top of the food chain.

#2 back-hand on a breakaway that pops the goalie's water bottle.

#3 those goals that actually don't happen because of grand larceny.

That backhander in close from Laf was pure filth

The Frolov

lmao, I despise wraparounds. Maybe specifically because we call it "the Frolov".

 

[Fitzy]

With the modern game I feel like a larger and larger percentage of goals scored have become of the garbage variety. Deflections and close in rebounds.

I enjoy a well executed 2 on 1 more than anything else.

Goalie goals

wish it wasn't Billy Smith getting credit, but just like this

 

[jacko23]

As long as its not against us, i dont care.

 

[Ruggs225]

My favorite goal is when the rangers score.

otherwise a breakaway when the player dekes crap out of a goalie or a sweet tick tack toe passing play.

Has "The one against the other team..."

been taken yet?

 

[duhmetreE]

Always loved snap shots and shooting off of wrong foot

Always has the best shot on my teams

 

[LokiDog]

This is tough. I can’t really choose between something like the Gaborik reach behind the blue line and then clean snipe from the wing or a Crosby/Kane tight angle laser beam backhand. Also love a good curl and drag around a defender, bar down in the Matthews style.

 

[Harbour Dog]

Definitely deking around defenders and the goalie in tight.

A close second is the 'iron will' type of goal where a guy goes hard to the net and pokes it in while getting levelled.

[GoAwayPanarin]

Bar down clappers are just so f***ing satisfying.

 

[Cag29]

A Ranger goal is my favorite type of goal!!!!

Other

I want a guy to drive hard to the net beating a defender and the forward back on D.

Either coming in off the wing or digging out from the corner.

 

[LokiDog]

Also love the filthy no-look/barely look snipe from the half wall. Surprises everyone.

 

[Adam Fox Time]

Breakaway slapshots.

 

[RangerLifer]

Don't care. I love 'em all as long as my team scores.

There ya go!

Afinegenov was one of my favorite non-Rangers.
