What's your favourite goal of all time? (feddit.uk)

I've got two. The first is this Rick Nash vs Phoenix. I had only been watching Hockey for a few months at this point, and a combination of the announcers excitement and the insane skill required kind of blew me away.

The second is Ovi vs Montreal. I remember where I was when I first saw this goal. Early in the morning (UK), I'm on the exercise bike and I'm awestruck with how anyone could do this. It's for me the definitive early-Ovi goal. Speed, Power, Ingenuity and of course, a finish.

I'm very partial to the golden goal but that may be because I'm Canadian. I was at my cousin's house and his family who don't often do things together were huddled around the TV. You could feel the tension in the room. Then the goal happened and you could hear the whole neighborhood going nuts!

Nothing wrong with that at all. I was a neutral in this game but as a Capitals fan...*why did it have to be Crosby?

*2010 me was much different than 2023 me. I hated that guy. Current me thinks it's been a pleasure to watch him play.
