I can't do that move.

It's not that hard, probably 90% of NHL players can do it, they just don't because they're not confident, don't want to get bitched out by the coach, and because it's usually not the best idea anyways. How often have you seen connolly do it versus how often we've scored because of it?

I'm thinking if Lindy had to choose between Rivet and that dog to play D, come gametime, the dog ain't sittin' in the pressbox.

And hey, the dog can already say the coaches name: Ruff.

I sometimes daydream about doing that exact move, but I've never even tried it.

shoes=/=skates though.

its not an overly difficult move. i cant do it in skates. then again, i dont try anything fancy on breakaways, i go backhand, and high. but i mean, in all fairness, its easy to do in shoes, probably alot harder on skates with defenders in your way.

Actually I find it to be easier on skates. You can glide. While walking/striding, you need to do it at the right time. It's also much easier on a smooth surface.

once you get ur balance on skates its basically the same b/c you and the puck are moving the same speed. I can do the new Connolly move. and by that i mean watch the game
