Oh i know, its easily predictable. Its really the only consistent move that him or stafford pull in the S.O., its just where he puts it,is what makes it deadly most of the time.

Yeah he has actually scored on Tim Thomas with the exact same move in the shootout before…

not recently. I forgot who it was, but someone read him like a book. I’m not saying I could stop it… but just his approach alone you know what he is going to do.

In all fairness kotalik has a hell of a shot and has scored shootout goals without using the backhand move. I just wish he wasn’t such a pussy

It is such a versatile move. If the player is skilled enough to read a goaltender and has the hands its almost unstoppable. If the goaltender bites on the forehand fake, he goes to the backhand. If the goaltender appears to be predicting the move, he just snaps it into the net.

> Of all of the designated fighters in the NHL, the most boring is Andrew Peters of the Sabres. The worst kind of NHL fight is when a guy throws a punch every eight seconds while keeping his face out of harm’s way. The best fights and the most entertaining fighters are the guys who employ the take-one-to-give-one method: Riley Cote, Arron Asham, Milan Lucic, Eric Godard, Eric Boulton, Colton Orr, Dan Carcillo, Jody Shelley and Ian Laperriere, to name a few. (Mr. Peters, please keep in mind that if you challenge me to a fight, I will employ the Monty Python “run away” theory.)
