Personally I love the goalies reaction of just looking around afterwards as if saying, "What the F- just happened?"
Hes thinking, "if this is the future of the game, my career is fucked."
As a goalie I can feel for this guy, if soemthing like that is ever attempted on me imma just sit there like wtf
I love all goalies
I love this comment thread 🔥🤣
The goalie is saying, "What you just did is illegal." To the guy with the video and with the commentary: Dude, he missed the shot! Even if the puck landed in the net, it would have not counted since what he did is illegal. Your praising makes no sense.
That's incredible strenght for the wrists. Incredible balance too while skating full speed. This was impressive asf.
@@jerryk6530 And it's not full speed, not even close.
Yes it's pretty incredible to be able to balance while gliding slowly with your legs one meter apart.
damn you attracted the butt hurt kiddos who "have seen better" at the bar
@@flowmastaflam It's a nice move I was pointing out that half the things he pointed out were flat out wrong lol.
@@daltondrouillard9308 He meant full speed of the video. U spupid or something?
Almost all hockey players from Finland and Sweden will have played a sport called floorball. It’s a bit like floor hockey but with a much lighter stick and ball. This is the most blatant floorball move I’ve yet to see but you can see traces of that sport in Elias Petterssons game too.
almost like but this is still really far from that. in floorball you can throw the ball anywhere you want so its almost automatic goal. here teemu had very limited options where the puck could go, left or right topside and obviously it wasnt very accurate method from that range compared to normal shot. so it pretty much just relied on shock value and surprise. i dont see mcdavid doing this in regular games even if he could.
Which Elias Pettersson are you talking about? The Canucks have 2 of them now. (I know you're talking about the center, I just think it's funny that they drafted another player with the same name this year).
Floorball is way funnier and more convenient to play than hockey because 1) you don't have to be strong, even a 5-year old girl can shoot with those sticks and balls, and 2) it's indoor on floor so it's not cold either. It's also way cheaper. It's essentially a after work hobby not really much of a serious sport.
@@okyouknowwhatever more convenient? Sure. You can play it in any indoor arena with typical "sports floor", and all you need is a stick, a ball and a pair of functioning legs. More fun? Lol no, not even close. If you actually know how to skate, hockey is so much more fun.
@@okyouknowwhatever It doesnt really sound like you've tried to play hockey yourself. The temperature is not relevant at all.
It is inspired by floorball penalties and a floorball move called Zorro. Floorball is a really popular sport in Findland, sweden and other nordic countries.
It's quite popular in Czech Republic too
Hey that sport! A couple of my teammates are on one of the National teams for USA
@@bukelos2804 yess, and norway, switzerland, Latvia etc
@@bukelos2804 Yes! As a Finn I was hoping Czechia would win the world cup this year, they played some very entertaining floorball.
Gotta check more floorball then! I'm from Poland and I love how it is popular in the entire area of my country but not in Poland itself😅
The fact that he got SO much elevation on it that he actually missed OVER the net makes it even more impressive.
If you look closely, he actually slams the puck off the corner of the net. similar to where the mike leg lacrosse move aims at..
If I look closely...all I see is the stick. Lol. Hockey is flipping awesome but I can't watch it. My eyes are just too slow.
Yes, it's impressive to miss.
I think he hit the bar? In slow-mo it seems so.
Hartikainen said that he tried to do bar down but it just hit the bar
It is move heavily inspired by a floorball move named "Zorro". The inventor of the move is a guy named Janne Täkhä, Finland. He first did it in a game between Sweden and Finland in 1999. Since then it has gone better and better and better. I would reccomend looking up the player named Nils Höglander. If you can't find it, add "Zorro".
Tähkä*
that is probably the slickest move ever, the datsyuk backhand drag was super smooth, but this is the best. so cool.
glad to see you covering hockey outside the NA, from time to time. :) keep it up, love your work on this channel!
One of the best I’ve seen- I don’t know why it would be illegal. He kept moving forward without stopping. Makes it a legal play but who knows.
the puck must keep moving forward. At least in NA that's the rule.
@@tchevrierlooked pretty clean to me.
@@tchevrier that’s odd the puck goes forward and back all the time in stick handling
I also think it would be a legal move
@@justinmillett101 Nope,. He brings that puck backwards.
That's incredible :O The most impressive attempt I've ever seen :O And imagine, if it was a goal, that would have been undescribable
Even the goalie gave the guy a respect stare
The goalie gave him a “well that was a waste of effort wasn’t it” stare.
This is on god the most unique shootout attempt I’ve ever seen
On god fam
Nah I’ve played hockey my whole life I’m 23 now this is just fuckin wild. The wrist strength, the balls to pull that off is crazy. The fact he actually got a shot off is crazy
Still a kid then.
@@Jake420 bro it’s not that deep 😂 I was skating since I could walk. Your braindead
And how old was Gretzky or Mcjesus? The kid is right, it would take great strength and skill, not to mention balls in a shoot out. I'm 60, I'm with the kid.
I had a good laugh when you said you played hockey your whole life and you're only 23 yrs. old. I suggest you clean up your speech and realize you're not in the locker room a with your friends. Coming from a 73 yr. old hockey bum.
At 23 a lifetime experience isn't that long...
I LOVE when player's think of new and unique moves in shootout. Always when I was a kid I watched Pavel Datsyuk and his shootout moves and try to replicate that yourself always, damn that was fun..
Imagine the wrist strength it requires to pull this off. Teemu is one heck of a strong sturdy player. I have always thought of him as a Finnish version of Jagr. By no means he is as skilled as Jagr was, but Teemu has a similiar style of keeping and covering the puck with his massive behind.
Mikko Rantanen and Leon Draisaitl are masters at this too.
I’d been working on wrist strength my whole life. I got this! 💦
Yes covering the puck is his biggest strength, one of the best players on it that i have seen honestly and ive seen many games. He is big and strong like a bison, if this requires a lot of strength he definitely has it
that was insane, and it should count considering its on his stick the whole time. we hold the puck back to take a wrist shot so it shouldnt be much different than that
Puck must always go forward if the forward progress stops the attempt is dead which is why spinorama is banned. If he made a few small modifications so it's closer to the datsykian it could be legal.
@@THIS---GUY that is definitely not the rule. It has to do with putting the puck your stick, lacross style. Like the michigan. Which you cannot do in a shootout
@drebk bro what? That is definitely the rule 😅 One of the basic rules of a shootout attempt is "During a penalty shot, the puck must be kept in motion towards the opponent’s goal line" The reason the spinorama was banned was because forward motion of the puck toward the goal line stopped. It has nothing to do with putting the puck on the stick. Floor hockey and lacrosse moves often violate this principal of no stopping forward progress toward the goal line and would be the reason this move would be called dead. The other rule states The spin-o-rama type move where the player completes a 360° turn as he approaches the goal, shall be permitted as this involves continuous motion. However, should the puck come to a complete stop at any time during the shot attempt, the shot shall be stopped and no goal will be the result.
@@drebk the Michigan starts behind the net bro no sheet you cannot do it during a shootout 😂
@@THIS---GUY I'm glad someone else agrees that even if this had worked it shouldn't have counted. All respect to the talent it takes to do it, but as you've mentioned it doesn't follow the rules of the shootout.
He's currently playing for my hometown team in the swiss league, and there is no wonder why he's the highest scorer of the whole league (being paired with big names such as linus omark really helps tho)
Ex Oilers are killing it in the Swiss league apparently.
Probably would still be playing in russia with granlund and manninen, but finnish politicians told them to leave russia. I wouldnt have left my life behind..
To think what a gem Oilers had.. and isnt the only Finnish one they had. Oilers is where Finnish NhL careers go to die 😂
@@markopelaayep one guy stayed and gets haunted by the media...really cool
At first I was like what could possibly be filthier than the likes of Datsyuk, Kane, etc, but I spoke too soon 😳
That's incredible. It may be the future of hockey. I remember when Pavel Bure tried to rainbow the puck over the net from behind and pass it to himself. Happened at Maple Leaf Gardens in the mid-90's. He missed, but it was magic to us watching it. Years later it became a viable play, even if extremely rare. Phil Borque was tried to score on a breakaway with the puck pinned down by the end of his stick. Missed, but it was also a neat idea, even if it never caught on. Pavel Datsyuk's shootout drag and rainbow plop shot over the goalie was also experimental, but it has now been confirmed as a bonified shootout move. So we will see in years to come if this becomes part of hockey, or just a failed fringe experimentation.
That was a gnarly ass move! A lot of stick skills and wrist/forearm strength there.
Don't care that he didn't score - it's incredible that he actually got the shot off.
God dam!! I ain’t a hockey player and seeing that, that was like mixing figure skating with hockey. It’s insane in a good way.
Best shoutout move I’ve seen in a long time
I would say ever. Insane move.
Love it when players use floorball skills in hockey👍
I think he got inspiration from floorball to this manouver.
Correct👍🏼
Wow! Admittedly the fact that the puck didn’t go in bothers me a bit but it is still one of the sickest moves I’ve ever seen. I think I’ll always put Datsyuk at the top of my shootout highlight list…but this one is now near the top as well.
Now that is a first...amazing to see hockey still developing and this is even radical development.
You know it’s incredible when you can’t even comprehend it
I don’t know how a player could even come up with that move. I have watched it over and over, and I’m still not sure it’s possible. Serious respect to that young man for coming up with it.
young man? he is 32 :D
@@arivaarnas546 Well, 32 is really far from an old man too so🙂
I didn't say he is old. I said he is NOT young.
@@arivaarnas546 If being a man is from 18-75 (average age of death), then 32 is pretty young I'd say ;-P
I knew he is good, even if his skating keeps him outside the NHL.. But. I had no idea he had this in him. And his wrists are clearly strong, it was not a weak shot with one hand either.
New Michigan. I’ve been watching for over 30 years now and that’s impressive. I’m not sure I’ve seen anything like it either, it’s like a hybrid of everything.
He said in finnish interview that he just did score that couple of times in practise so what the hell let's go for it :D
I'm still trying to pop my shoulder socket back in just looking at this
Eck is showing his status as a newcomer to hockey with this one by being so impressed with that move 😂 Jokes aside, that is a super cool move. It shows up now and again in shootouts, mostly in the Euro leagues, and it's always fun to see.
The forearm and wrist strength to flip the stick around, pull the puck to behind himself, flip the stick around again and flip the puck after, with ONE HAND....is freaky skillful.
He CLEARLY hit the crossbar!
That’s some Pavel Barber shit
Dude I didn't know you did hockey vids for years I've only seen your starwars content this is awesome
Whats even crazier is the puck literally vanishes when it hits the crossbar and then magically reappears on the ice behind the net 😳🤔
I want see this in NHL. I hope Trevor Zegras watches this
kzhead.info/sun/frJ8dZplm5eZeqM/bejne.html I'll just leave this here.
And then it would be forever named the Zegras move.
Imagine if he’d scored
Thats the most impressive moves Ive ever seen period.
By far and beyond the most impressive puck handling skills I have seen. But I also don’t watch hockey all that often.
The goalie's reaction is the best part
Hot dogging or not, these kind of modern moves breathes fresh air into the sport.
The concept that a player shouldn't try the thing he thinks will bring him the most success on the ice is completely insane. Only people with bitterness in their hearts actually get angry when somebody else does something that hurts nobody and provides joy to others, and accomplishes their goal.
It would have counted, because he was skating forward the whole time and he was in control of the puck all the time. Soooo close to going in. The goalie was in disbelief xD
The fact the puck stayed on the blade of his stick like that defies physics
Has anyone in the NHL ever tried to replicate this? It would be a cool challenge.
I agree
not even in All Stars game bud
A one handed toe drag front side Michigan?
That move made me feel the cold from the stadium run down my spine 🥶
He didn't get the goal but damn, that was filthy
I’m a Penguins fan. So I am used to a lot of fancy moves that don’t result in a goal.
Very impressive I just love the creativity hockey in 100 years gonna be crazy
Incredible grip, wrist and forearm strength
What the hell was that
That was sick…kind of wish he would have scored. That takes incredible talent , skill and strength. And to pull it off in a game vs. your biggest rival takes some balls as well.
It's a practice game, you can try anything and nobody will remember.
@@arivaarnas546 Totally disagree if he would have scored he would have made SportsCenter
@@djrondo1224 can you even read what I said.
Keep up with the great content!
Amazing skill level. Had he scored I'm sure I would have seen it before now.
you should make a video on LA winning their last two games in shootouts and how phoenix copley is actually playing way better than LA's main goaltenders.
copley shooting for quicks starting spot at this rate
Ahhh just another caps goalie prospect showing what's up
The goalies reaction at the end says it all!
Wild To Watch !!! Three Cheers For The Entertainment Factor!!!
This is an incredible move by an absolute pro puck handler… if it was a goal it would be on every highlight reel across the globe. Well done.. wow😮
It would have counted and it's under appreciated how likely he would have scored with this move. He basically just missed an empty net which is unfortunate. One of the best shootouts ever. Hartikainen is amazing player
No, it would NOT have counted. Right before the shot, he toe-dragged the puck backwards. Not allowed on a penalty shot.
@@MultisportOfficial You can move puck backwards, you just have to skate forward. That is the rule
@@ilarivaisanen If you say so. What do I know. I've only been a ref for 25 years.
@@ilarivaisanen Rule 406 | Penalty Shot(c) "A “Penalty Shot” shall be taken as follows: The puck shall be placed on the center ice face-off spot and on the instruction of the Referee, the player taking the shot will play the puck from there and attempt to score on the goalkeeper. Once the player taking the shot has touched the puck, it must be kept in motion towards the opponent’s goal line and once it is shot the play shall be considered complete." "It must be kept in motion towards the opponent's goal line." "It" is the puck, not the player.
@@MultisportOfficial That is the old rule, 2023 NHL rules allow puck moving backwards as long as player is going forward.
As a Swede my self i think it is kind of sad that he didnt score. Anyone who make an awesome trick should be rewarded. Next time he score👍
Wow that was sick shootout attempt. I like these creative attempts. Even the goalie was like...what
how ! this is insane man...
Its the only shoutout move I believe.
Pedant humor is even funnier when only 3 people get it.
This move was creative as heck but for me Linus Omark has the all time best shootout move that Pavel Datsyuk later used also
As a Finnish hockey fan, I laughed like hell when I saw this. Sweden's goalkeeper was good, so we had to try something surprising, and I think Teemu Hartikainen put on a good show.
A thing of sheer Beauty!
He's a lefty also.... He did the move with his right hand and lefty stick...
Most lefty stick users are right handed so
In Europe most players are right-handed and play leftie. It is more common to have your dominant hand holding the stick, unlike Canada where is it more usual to have your dominant hand lower, since it is more of a shooting game in North America.
yes probably Edit: OH MY GODD THAT IS A BEAUTY IMAGINE IF HE MADE THAT JEEZ
That must be the most intricate deke from any sport ever played
Hockey is the only sport that keeps on impressing me
That was almost as good as ur vids
It helps with how lite and whippy modern sticks are. Try doing that with a good old Sherwood pmp 5030 and you're breaking your limbs.
this move is really popular in floorball which is a big sport in finland, maybe thats where he got the inspiration, toe drags are really common in floorball shootouts
Your channel is immaculate my friend
Wow!! The game has changed so much in last 20 yrs… it’s crazy
This is something you would see in floorball. Fairly popular sport in Finland and Sweden and most ice hockey players know how to play this as it is similar sport.
Here in North America, this move is illegal in a shootout or a penalty shot, because at one point, the puck is moving backwards, but if someone manages to do it while keeping the puck moving forward at all time, then it is a good goal if the player scores
A thing of beauty.
Awesome f'n move. And big props to the goaltender to stay with the puck and force him wide. I'm both Swedish and a fmr. goalie, so . . . Also, I really wish the NHL would play on the international size rink.
Smooth as butter.
He hit the crowd bar
I've definitely never seen that one before. It looks incredibly difficult to pull off successfully, but boy it looks cool.
0:08 that slight smile at the end
You have become my staple Hockey channel in youtube, everyday I check your profile for new videos. Amazing! Can you make a video about Puljujarvis sitsuation in the Oilers? He has some interesting signing and salary requirements if Oilers would trade him.
here while the title still says “shoutout”
Nice shot ,wow thats hard to do!!! Thats creative hockey 🏒 👌
Fricking Awesome !!
This move comes from floorball which is very popular in Finland and Sweden. I'd say most hockey players do a fair bit of floorball growing up and maybe even into their hockey careers.
I’ve been waiting for another magician worthy move. (Datsyuk) and that was gnarly
Goal or not that absolutely filthy 👀😳
Haartikainen been fantastic gor servette this season. Regularly comes up with skillfull plays. But this is next level
thats absolutely insane. doesn't seem possible.
I just liked to say those Finnish and Sweden units are 🔥
The most impressive shot I've ever seen
This is a guy who is 2 meters tall on skates and 100kg and his nickname is Härski Hartikainen a.k.a Nasty Hartikainen. It comes from his physical but talented play with his big body and also from an old movie character. After this trick I would call him the Wizard of Kuopio.
Respect to that goalie for even being remotely close to potentially blocking that shot. If you look at it in slow motion, the goalies arm was actually really close to the puck right at the end there. I can't believe the goalie even had any idea where that thing was going let alone being that close. I say we got to give a lot of respect to that goalie. That shot was obviously unbelievably amazing even though it apparently missed. I was trying to figure out when he did the switch back from the front to the back of the hockey stick towards the end there right before he swooped it in. I'll have to slow down to see that because it was almost like a magic trick it happened so fast.
