Twisted Wrister Hockey uploaded a great NHL video called "Each NHL Team's Best Traditions!".... really is great!

[@DNReacts]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[@ThatsMyStuffYouBledOnTrevor]

I wanna see a bar down comp

[@jaydoverspike1423]

Y’all need to check out Niklas Kronwall highlights. He used to hit guys so hard and so often that they eventually called it getting “Kronwalled”. He was an absolute menace.

[@downrighttt]

Similarly to Hasek, Kronwall had a very unorthodox way of playing his position. I really think the lads would like him, and I’m not just saying that because he’s my all time favorite player 😅😂

[@hannahstevenson27]

Lehner, Holtby, Lundquist, Quick, Price, Rask, Rinne, Fluery Among the best in the modern game. 6/7 retired now

[@j.r.v.p_14]

Goalies are a different breed. Glad to see them get some credit here. There’s some amazing hockey accounts to react to! Hockey Psychology breaks down the game in a unique way. Rob Talks Hockey talks about a wide variety of hockey related things! There’s also a GoPro series in which GoPro cameras are put on NHL stars. You get to see the game from a first person POV. And the skill on display is amazing! Lastly, the NHL made videos for the “100 Greatest Players in NHL history”. There’s a short 4-6 minute video for all 100 players on KZbin. They’re super interesting.

[@sabertheglaceon256]

Thanks(Goalie here)

[@MuriKakari]

Goalies are absolutely awesome. All my favorite players are goalies.

[@erikbyrge2024]

4:22 Curtis Joseph save against Dallas Stars let the Edmonton Oilers upset Stars in 1997 Quarterfinals playoffs

[@aimc00232]

the goalie who kicked the puck away that you were impressed by was Miikka Kiprusoff. Check out his highlights some time! In my opinion he's drastically underrated since he played in a time when plenty of other legends were at their peaks but he doesn't get nearly enough love outside of Calgary. As a Flames fan, he's the best goalie in team history and a fan favourite. He's getting his jersey retired this year

[@DNReacts]

Love this context, thank you for the comment 🙏

[@vsocarras27]

RIP to Rick Jeanneret the Buffalo Sabres announcer 1:47-2:03 from 1971-2022 he recently passed away August 17, 2023

[@DNReacts]

We have recently recorded a video of Rick! Will be out in about a week!

[@LS-uv9gg]

The top horizontal is the "Crossbar" the vertical sides are "Posts". " 'bar down" "post and in" and "rang one off the pipe" "rings one off the bar" are typical common terms, with the last ones denoting a near miss, sometimes the puck hitting the metal can make a super loud bell ringing *PING* sound, it's one of my favourite sounds in all of sports. If the puck hits the net but doesn't go in, and the goalie doesn't touch it, it's actually not registered as a shot on goal, believe it or not lol.

[@sam8997]

you guys should check out some tic tac toe goals it’s similar to how in football (soccer) they do tiki taka. pretty much elite passing plays leading to goals

[@coreyrees840]

That last one was Hasek

[@DNReacts]

Thank you 🙏🏼

[@erolbulut2584]

Check out '17 Seconds'. Blackhawks-Bruins gm. 6 Finals

[@zacharyliles8657]

I'm pretty sure I've said this before, but I really appreciate the Canadian flag you put up for the hockey videos!

[@damonx6109]

In Canada, we have pubs... They don't use that term much in the US, but it is very common in Canada.

[@Timmycoo]

Bar is short for crossbar. Posts are just the side posts. So yeah, common sayings are post and in or bar down. Also yeah Hasek (pronounced HASH-ehck) revolutionized a lot of butterfly style saves with his crazy acrobatics. Also I love that you get to see Crosby mouthing "WHAT WAS THAT!?" after his team saved a goal on the line. One thing I wish was added into this compilation (realize it's all goalies) but if it was defensemen making crazy saves as well.

[@QuackAttack]

I thought Roy revolutionized the butterfly style but I could be wrong about that...

[@samhatfield7732]

@@QuackAttack Glenn Hall is recognized at the first NHL goalie to use the butterfly save/technique. Roy, with the aid of Benoit and Francois Allaire, "revolutionize" the butterfly save/technique into a style/system of goaltending. Hasek had no "style". He had techniques, but it didn't fall into a particular "style".

[@Timmycoo]

@@samhatfield7732 Roy popularized it. It made a lot of other players play like him. I guess you could call that revolutionize, so that's true. And yeah that's what I meant about Hasek's style being acrobatic. But you look at quite a few goalies afterwards emulating his "style". I guess you could call it his own style? Reason I labeled it butterfly was because he would sprawl on the ice.

[@MuriKakari]

Defenseman making crazy saves - Lidstrom stick saving an empty net.

[@sid7088]

More hockey fights or box lacrosse fights.

[@Averagejoes31]

You should check out Martin Brodeur if you’re looking for another NHL goalie to watch. Great content as always.

[@DNReacts]

Appreciate the suggestion and the comment, thank you so much 🙏

[@darylanderson4600]

What do I want to see next.. how about "best almost goals"

[@spacetiger5076]

You were laughing when the goalie checked under his glove like he couldn’t believe what he had done, but I wanted to tell you that it is a very real concern for these guys when they are covering up the puck with their glove hand. A lot of the time you can’t feel the puck when you’re covering it so you could be completely wrong about covering it and it’s actually out in the open by your body just waiting for someone to flip it in and score. If you watch hockey, you’re bound to see this happen where the goalies teammates see the puck is loose and use their stick to push it under the goalies body. I only played goal for a couple years to fill in when our teams goaltender got cut for his school grades, but I know how nerve wracking it is to not be 100% sure you’re on the puck.

[@ashocck8065]

Most of the saves shown were by the best of the best HOF goalies. Naturally, half of them were by Hasek 🙂

[@MuriKakari]

Like the guy said, Human Highlight Reel is the best way to describe Hasek

[@Leafsdude]

4:22 - That Joseph save is the greatest save in NHL history, IMO. So good even the _goalie_ couldn't believe it, lol. Oh my goodness, indeed.

[@ZinnAlpha]

Linus Ulmark and Jeremy Swayeman 2022-2023 are asininely good. Plus the hug is the most wholesome thing in hockey period.

[@hannahstevenson27]

7:27 when you stop a shot like that from one of the best goal scorers of all time, Pavel Bure, you know you’re great…

[@downrighttt]

Speaking of Petr Cech in the beginning, he’s playing semi-pro hockey for the Oxford City Stars these days!!!

[@Irockthere4]

Great job as usual. Respect the athleticism of those guys on ice skates!

[@JoeVideoed]

As some1 who grew up in the 70s & 80s when hockey was never on TV, all I have to reference from those days was the Miracle on Ice. The goalies back then looked like stiffs compared to today's athletes. If there were studs in that position back then, there aren't many hilites of them unfortunately, but the skills today's goalies possess are amazing.

[@DNReacts]

Thank you Bill, we really appreciate it 🙏

[@jameshurley9551]

I was in Vegas with money on the Sharks for that Nabokov save. That’s still the best save in the biggest moment I’ve ever seen. Don’t even care they lost. Me and a Stars fan were watching it and were just rooting for the game to end by the 4th over time 😂

[@ianchambers37]

It's one of my saves. It's such an amazing one, especially given the circumstances. Unfortunately, they still lost the game, sadly.

[@fitzgeraldlansanah5306]

Loved damo and nick faces on all these saves 😂damo couldn't stop last

[@DNReacts]

😂😂

[@taegenbrown2894]

First one 🥇

[@DNReacts]

Let’s go!

[@deliriousgeorge2879]

The first save was by Ryan miller, my favorite player ever! He had a couple saves in this

[@samuelengle3773]

Carey price but do a more recent video.

[@waynewallace9972]

If you hadn't noticed, Hasek, Lundquist and Price will reoccur throughout this video

[@philh2453]

Martin Brodeur Career Highlights on NHL yt channel

[@philh2453]

Include the vid 'Martin Brodeur owns many key career goalie records' also on the NHL yt channel

[@DNReacts]

Appreciate the suggestion, thank you 🙏

[@6Jim6Miner6]

Pubs here isn't what pubs there is, but we do have them. Run by Brits as well. And as soon as you haven't you could just as soon have that information available to you, along with what the Selke trophy and Lady Byng are. However, watching you get excited about Hasek looked like me having my first Lucozade, my first sticky toffee, and my first warm half a lager. You'd need steel wool wiping that smile off my face. (Respectfully, coming from USA) Your ignorance is bloody adorable, seems the point, no? I love it almost as much as I love your country. Hoping hockey will continue to flourish there and be supported. It's so barely different from footie that I can see your fellow citizens embracing it in greater numbers. This one the best of the lot, your incredulity at the saves seems to outdo your incredulity at spectacular offensive plays. And rightly so. Offensive plays are far less rare. Well done lads, crack on then...

[@sizzledan31]

If you wanna watch a current goalie great, look up some of Andrei Vasilevskiy's greatest saves. His nickname is the big cat because of his tall stature and incredible agility. If he retires tomorrow he'd be a shoe in for the hall of fame and he's only 29

[@scottjgrant3345]

it looks like luck and it can be, but if you watch these guys, they are reacting to things that havent happened, they just threw themselves in one direction and then had to fling their limbs in the opposite direction because they just got faked out. they have cat like reflex

[@MonsieurBooyah]

Tim Thomas came out of nowhere in his career over 30 years old, won a Vezina (goalie of the year), won a Stanely Cup, and went back to nowhere.

[@blueshky]

Have you guys ever been to an Elite League game? A couple teams, such as Nottingham Panthers and Sheffield Steelers, have CRAZY fans!

[@DF-je3lz]

Don’t worry about need multiple replays. Been watching for 20 years and still can’t follow it sometimes 😂

[@voicije]

patrick roy... the goalie who..... let say.. was passionate !!

[@scottjgrant3345]

its called "hockey eyes" when you grow up in canada and everything is icy and snowy and white you can track a black puck easily.

[@dacrosber]

What’s the definition of a pub exactly?? Is it just a bar that serves food?? Cause in the US we just call those bar & grills

[@rodchallis8031]

Jean-Sebastien Giguere's miracle playoff run in 2003 with Anaheim was something to behold. While Anaheim lost game 7 of the Cup Final, Giguere ended up winning the Conn Smythe Trophy as the playoff MVP-- not unheard of for a player on the losing team to win it, but very rare. Unfortunately, Giguere fooled everyone into thinking Mike Babcock was a great coach. Almost 20 years later, Babcock's last game behind the bench was marked with a save by Marc-Andre Fluery that would merit being on this video, or any great save video. The leaf's loss in that game was the straw that broke Babcock's back. Live by the hyphenated first name Goalie, die by the hyphenated first name goalie.

[@markhodge7]

I played goalie for 40 years starting at age 6 in the 60s. I've made most of those saves over the years. You throw out your glove, or stick, in desperation, and the puck hits. Only Hasek and Price have made saves that I simply have to shake my head at. Hockey goaltending is the best position to play in any sport. Striker in Football or Quarterback in Football are glamorous, but we Goalies know where the buck stops! Only if you played can you understand. The Goaltenders Union only lets in members.

[@ianchambers37]

We got pubs, bars and clubs lol. At least here in Canada. Bars and pubs are pretty similar for the most part at most of them.

[@Strawberry-12.]

If you lik goalies look up Martin broduer. He is the GOAT goaltender (not goalkeepers) he littered spoiled my view on what a goalie was supposed to be like

[@tomjudge7920]

Hasek drove coaches and teammates crazy he was unpredictable and impossible to read

[@bwalker77]

A good thing about that video is that it's a very good representation of the best goalies of the last few decades. There aren't many highlights from players I wouldn't consider great, or at least very good during their peak. And I realize this is stating the obvious, but NHL goalies are fantastic athletes! If I did any of these moves, I would need to be sent to the hospital immediately so that the doctors put my limbs in their right place...

[@alessandroscuderi7300]

A tip on following the play in hockey is dont focus directly on the puck. Focus on players body's and hands/Stick and it will be clear who has the puck or where it is. Its one of those things that just takes time and its no problem at all. You are able to follow the play perfectly completely even if the puck isnt the easiest to watch directly.

[@dylanlevy2107]

I was a goalie its basically all reflexes and being ahead of the play mentally. If your thinking the pucks in the net

[@craig05ish]

Lundqvist highlights will entertain you both

[@ThatCronus]

I'm biased as a Sabres fan, but Hasek and Miller are both incredible goalies

[@ethanparker7900]

how is the save stick save from the 2018 final not in here?

[@Kwright304]

That goalie at the end making gaborik flip was Hasek

[@davidsp5936]

Martin Brodeur is the 🐐. He holds records for the most records.

[@damonx6109]

Being a goalie in hockey is the hardest position in all of pro sports...

[@comradecrawdaddy]

My favorite goalie of all time is Evengeni Nabokov

[@MicroSausage]

The fact tim thomas is on this list only 1 time is criminal

[@stevebahnaman6845]

A "pub" here is basically a bar that sells British food.

[@PartTimeSarah2]

The bar on the top of the net is the crossbar, the two vertical ones are the posts.

[@cmac3530]

If you want another human highlight reel check out 10 minutes of Jonathan Quick highlights. One of the most acrobatic goaltenders you'll ever see.

[@DNReacts]

Appreciate the suggestion, thank you 🙏

[@SalMuh04]

Can you react to best hockey brawls by hockey highlights!

[@DNReacts]

Appreciate the suggestion, thank you 🙏

[@dondon130]

Great video. Hasek was one of a kind. Brodeur was excellent.

[@DNReacts]

Thank you, we really appreciate it 🙏

[@brownbenplumm9027]

I’m a Bruins fan, so I barely watch any west coast hockey, but Jonathan Quick was absolutely electric for a good few years. He always seemed to make highlight reel saves. It seemed casual to him

[@unklebacon44]

As a Buffalo fan, I lived through countless Hasek saves. Lehner had one here for us, Ryan Miller was almost as beloved as Hasek. Also you guys mentioned anyone on Par with Hasek last Video. Martin Brodeur was the only one in my opinion.

[@garentee2damangotree586]

Kobe 100 play’s please and hope y’all doing great 🤙💯

[@DNReacts]

Appreciate the suggestion, thank you 🙏 Thank you, hope you’re having a great one too

[@benjaylehman]

Would love to see you guys watch a top 100 players in the NHL before the season starts so you know all the big names!

[@vincenzofrancis9015]

We got pubs over here homies 😂😂. Love it !!

[@DNReacts]

💪😂😂

[@BillKrayer12thMan]

I cannot believe Patrick Roy isn't in there ‼️ Greatest goalie *EVER* ‼️ And I *love* that Marty Brodeur *is* in there, not once but *twice* ‼️ Thanks for uploading this ‼️ Much ❤️ from Seattle ‼️

[@fifa2446]

Roy literally IS in there
