  • He’s a magician on the ice, silky and smooth with the puck, and has league-wide respect as one of the best.

  • @Sphere723
    @Sphere723 8 років тому +119

    It's hard to explain, but after you've watched enough hockey, you start to get a sixth sense for what hockey "looks" like. The flow, the moves, the bounces etc. Such that when something abnormal happens, like a guy losing his skate blade, even if you're not really looking at him, your mind notices something with isn't hockey.
    Pavel is the only player I've watched where he will do something which my brain picks up as not "hockey". They can slow it down and show you exactly what he did. But in real time, it just gives you this strange, glitch in the Matrix felling.
    If that makes any sense.

      NHL is about pace , speed, grit , strenght and when someone plays using mostly his IQ with smooth deceive motions and technique - that is not reagular and brain notices that . For example NA technical guy like SID or Kane uses speed and pace of stickhandling. Kucherov or Datsyuk uses smooth style with more IQ involved to not overspeed opponent but deceive

    • @lesevesel2898
      @lesevesel2898 2 місяці тому

      Datsyuk trained with five pound weights on his hockey blade. Every stickhandling drill you can think of (and some you would never begin to imagine), he did it with those weights on his stick. Observe also that he had the biggest blade legally allowable in hockey. So much surface area to work with. His edge work is bonkers. Someone said that his center of gravity is between his crotch and the middle of his calves...and it is sturdier than a well pipe in a tornado.

    I saw this video come up and I had to watch it. Datsyuk was the best player from a golden era of Detroit Red Wings hockey. He did things that were so incredible that it made me laugh.
    But it also made me sad because I doubt that the Red Wings will ever have anything close to Datsyuk again... let alone be again the dominant team they once were during my lifetime. It went by so fast.

    Someone please find the fountain of youth so we can watch this guy play forever! I've been privileged to watch his career in Detroit. we've been lucky to have several greats skate in the Joe in my lifetime. Yzerman, Federov, Konstantinov, Lidstrom, Probert & Kocur, Datsyuk and Zetterberg. Now we have guys like Tatar and Nyquist, probably Mrazek making a bid and hopefully kids like Mantha, Athanasiou, Pulkkinen and Larkin soon to come.

    - Yes, we all know Kane's hands are undoubtedly fucking amazing.

    This'll go right past most peoples heads because it's sort of obscure, but in many ways he's always reminded me of Tom Penny -- though I only just now figured it out. There's this weird natural, relaxed style they both have, that makes everything they do and try look so easy and natural that you might think the tricks are, in fact, easy.
    But then you go out and try it out for yourself and somehow elbow yourself in the groin.
