Interesting player. One of the most complete centers in the league, amazing defensively. Doesn't do anything too fancy, just keeps putting up points. But in the shootout, his hands are unbelievable.
SDT PokemonGo McDavid is pretty good, but Ovechkin as always seemed to me as more of a sniper because how and where he scores his goals. He doesn’t get many breakaways so I’m not too sure.
@@CaptainMaggott Ovechkin became super boring in last few years. He used to do breakaways a lot when he was younger. I watched all his fifty plus goals of season 2018-19 - like 98% were scored from "his office". I realize that he just adapted his style since he is not as fast or explosive anymore, but d'oh.. Ovi from 2005-2015 was waay more exciting to watch.
Are you kidding? Datsyuk was a fucking boulder head, he couldn't do any of the shit Barkov does. I don't even like Barkov and I have to say that. Datsyuk was a chump.
The shootout is a rather recent innovation in professional hockey. Barkov gets great results with his dekes. In the old days the breakaway wasn't rare but wasn't commonplace either. The best breakaway deke artist I ever saw was Jim Pappin of the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Chicago Black Hawks. In full flight, he'd virtually undress the goal-keeper and then slide it into a wide open net.
This guy is amazing along with many of other greats. By the way, love the video and background music. Better than those others playing techno/dance b.s.. keep it up!
