Hockey kid (13 yrs old)

The 3rd or 4th one where he puts the puck between his legs, spins, and then shoots it backhand is possibly the coolest thing I have ever seen. If the rest of his game is even remotely as good as his shooting skills, he will probably be in the NHL in about 4-5 years.

Impessive for a 13 year old. But I know kids from my high school hockey days that could pull off all of the moves except the one through the legs. My favorite is the last goal.

The problem with his moves is that he can't apply them in a game successfully. His move between the legs is about the easiest shot for a goalie to stop. He's too deliberate; he doesn't get any velocity on the shot; and he waits waaaaaay too long to get the shot off. Maybe he can make an And 1 video, but that sh1t is weak.

No chit. These moves are only good for shoot outs. If he tried this in a live NHL game (when he got older) he'd be flattened like a pancake. Even on the sick between the legs move, the goalie made the save. Hotdogging is nice and all but I'd be more impressed if he scored.

Pretty slick kid. I wonder why none of the goalies poke checked because most of those moves could have been stopped cold with a poke. Still pretty nice though.

 

Closest thing I've seen to that kid's moves in the NHL is this:

Looks cool and all...but how many did he actually make?

 

And even in a shootout...those moves would not work at higher levels.

 

Fun for the internet...but meh...lots of the young stars can do stuff like this one on one with a poor goalie.
