    I know Herb Brooks would have had him doing some "Herbies" after that goal for "showboating", as I had to do a few of those myself.(god how I wished he would have choked on that whistle!)

    Afterwards he would have put his arm across the kids shoulder and simply said "Helluva job". I learned quite a bit from those couple of summer camps with Herb... but there are some things that cannot be coached or taught.

    This kid is better than Wayne Gretsky...

    It's a show boating move for sure, that's been done by some others over the last few years as well. That's entertainment, I kind of like it. I think the issue some have with it, is that the timing wasn't great. That move while you're running up the score has some thinking it's a bad combination. Like or not though, he may want to skate with his head up next time they play the Rangers, hockey karma can be a b*tch :)

    My feeling is if team doesn't like goals then their goalie should stop the shots. :rolleyes:

    Similar to what Bobby Bowden used to say when his FSU teams were perennially top 5 and he was accused of running up the score: Our job is to score and it's the other team's job to stop us.

    Not a hockey fan, but that was impressive.

    The goal was amazing, that 1-game performance was awesome, but comparing a kid with a few games under his belt to the all-time great player... priceless.

    Let's not forget that he is the leading scorer in the NHL at the moment as well. Having been around Hockey for a good chunk of my life and seen some amazing talent as team mates and as opposition, it is not too much of a stretch for me to say this kid is a once in a generation type of talent. I don't know if he will have the ability to break all the Great One's records, as that will depend on way too many factors, but I can say he is just about the most exciting player to lace them up and hit the ice in a very long time.
