@@xbox360gamertag8 gretzky era was much easier like so much easier to score it’s not even comparable. McDavid is probably the best talent the nhl has ever seen forget the stats
That last highlight against the rangers is so much doper than you know. They were down 5-1 (which is basically impossible to come back from in hockey) and his teammate Draisaitl (considered #2 or 3 in the world behind McDavid being #1) skated past the Rangers bench after the goal to make it 5-2 and said to the them "watch out, here we come" and then they tied it up and McDavid scored this goal to win the game. Fucking terrifying lol.
Oilers fan here, have had the pleasure to watch this man play live many times. Never gets old. Glad you guys enjoyed this and hope he's convinced you guys to catch a game sometime :)
Great stuff, Wayne Gretzky is considered the GOAT and was also and Edmonton Oiler. His highlight reel is sick. Mario Lemieux is another sick talent, barring injuries he may have broken some of Gretzky's scoring records, sick highlights from Mario.
That last one is one of the best goals I’ve ever seen, cuz the sick thing is he was clearly planning on doing it the whole time, just waiting for his guy to get onside and then hit execute. Like how do you think: “Single-handedly take on 5 of the best hockey players in the world who are all in position and beat them all… yes, this is the best option for scoring a goal.”
It’s insane how skilled he is. Go to a game and watch just how fast these guys are moving and your mind will further be blown by what this kid is doing out there. Hockey isn’t a sport where one player can just take over a game very often…McDavid can. Once in a generation talent.
you articulate exactly what I try to make people who watches for fun understand. Its like they dont get how big and fast these guys is, and how much energy their body iis carrying. Connor just skates trought them top speed dribbling the puck and making space SOMEHOW
McDavid is like prime sid and ovechkin in my mind the layers and skill of crosbys game with force of nature presence of ovechkin. You can’t stop him only contain him
Big hello from Canada it is so good to see younger guys and younger people. Watching hockey especially Americans because we know it's not one of the favorites. Maybe it's just a bit of Canadian pride but Connor McDavid Sidney Crosby Wayne Gretzky so many more are Canadians, and we do know there are a lot of us and European players as well. It was just nice to see you guys rooting for McDavid and mentioning Sidney Crosby. God bless much love
I am from the Edmonton area. It would be easier to get tickets to watch Edmonton in Phoenix or Las Vegas. However, the atmosphere here at an Oilers game, is pretty great. Thanks for the content.
Please do Patrick Roy highlights. One of the best goalies of all time. ****I've been watching you guys for a while now, and really enjoy your videos. Love that you are open to all things
Mcdavid played in my city in juniors (Erie Otters) and the price of admission was well worth it. Watch his highlights there. I went to a game with my dad on a Tuesday night and it was a sellout. The kid was 16 and sold out a 10,000 seat arena on a Tuesday in October. People would come from all over our tri-state area to watch him. Like i said, for a $15 ticket? I got to see greatness in the making.
Nice to see you guys checking out hockey! It would be cool if you gents would react to the Top 10 Most EPIC NHL Fights Of All-time! Thanks for your work in producing these fine videos!
I agree you should watch a goalie, react to saves by Marc-Andre Fleury, otherwise react to Pavel Datsyuks best dangles? Still tryin to get you guys to reaxt to the mobie slapshot aswell
Most people did not grow up around hockey or playing hockey. It's my experience ( especially being. hockey player in California) that most people discover it late in life and fall in love with it! Always exciting to meet ANYBody, ESPECIALLY untraditional hockey markets and fans that are into it. Gets me pumped that people like Snoop wears hockey jerseys in his music videos. Spread the hockey enthusiasm, CartierFamily. I appreciate it!
You guys seemed to love Connor McDavid's dekes and quickness; Im joining the crowd saying do Pavel Datsyuk next as he has a ridiculous highlight reel of embarrassing defenders.
Always tune in to your Tom reactions since day 1 but it was fun to see you reacting to Conner! If you ever come up to Edmonton to watch him play. Hit us up! #YEG
Idk bout that one guy. At this age Gretzky had 1,459 points compared to mcdavids 108. So idk how u can possibly say that 😂 and in fact mcdavid ain’t even in the top 5 player with the most points at this age. I ain’t saying he good. No question he the best player in the world as of now. But to say he more talented then Gretzky is blasphemy
@@jonathoncoe9210 Gretzky has the most goals of all time. And the most assists of all time. In fact if Gretzky was to never score a goal in the NHL he would still have more points than anyone else in history. So he wasn’t selfish and still got more goals than anyone else in history
@@xbox360gamertag8I love Wayne as much as anyone but he also played on the best team in the leagues history during the highest scoring period in league history. Six players from that team got sent to the Hall Of Fame. Gretz is still the goat and many of his records are untouchable but even he would tell you Connor is the most talented player the NHL has ever seen.
You guys should look up Darren McCarty and Claude Lemieux - Detroit Red Wings and Colorado Avalanche. It’s about how one hit started a whole rivalry and the fight night at the Joe (March 26, 1997). Also, look up NHL mic’d up. Love your reactions
Fucking love you guys!!!!! Love how you can see the athleticism with hockey!!! I grew up skating at 3 and love the love you guys give the game!!! This is what ever sport is about!!!! Does not matter what it is hockey baseball football basketball ufc ext……… love you guys, thanks for sharing. Much love BigJunK
Being from Oil Country I get the pleasure of seeing him all the time. Connor McDavid is a human highlight reel, its ridiculous. Leon Draisaitl also plays for Oilers, he is German and is insane in his own right. Check his highlights out sometime.
Check out Ron Hextall, the goalie with the most penalty minutes and suspensions, the first goalie to deliberately score a goal in the regular season and the playoffs, won the MVP of the playoffs on the losing team against Gretzky and the Oilers, and the most savage and feared player ever.
Yeah... hockey is so underappreciated down South... up here in the North it is a way of life... and yes seeing hockey in person is the best... it's hard to follow the puck on tv so you have to see it live. Hockey has never had such great athletes as they do now... when they slo mo it you really see how great these guys are... treat yourself go see a NHL game when you have a chance.
The No. 10 one, I was at that game sitting about two rows up right behind the goalie. As McDavid was coming in the goalie, Gibson (who is also amazing) had that right post sealed on the net--no day light. I mean, there was no shot. Next thing you know the puck is in the back of the net. I was like "how?" lol
What makes McDavid so good is that A) he is the fastest (or at least one of the fastest) guys in the NHL and B) his hands are so silky smooth. When he has the puck, he can stick handle better than anyone and C) he is a very smart player. Combining speed, skill and smarts makes him a very rare talent.
I’m a flames fan. The only other team in Alberta (a province in Canada) this man connor BY HIMSELF on a team of 23+ completely dismantled the entire flames team over 5 games last playoffs
Give Patrick Kane a chance. He’s older now but I was lucky to be at the game a couple of weeks ago with my son, brother, and father to see his last hat trick as a Blackhawk. He doesn’t have the size and power of some of these other players but stickhandling is insane. It was a joy watching him win three Cups here in Chicago and he will be missed!
I little extra info to make the #2 highlight at 6:30 even better. This was done during his rookie season, in his first game back after missing 37 games to a broken clavicle.
@@drewburns246 because it wasn’t the first guy you had to worry about in the 90’s anyway. It was the second guy that teed you up as you looked at the first guy. This wasn’t a diss at the dude, I love his play. Just stating a fact.
He is 26 and has over 900 points. He is on track to easily reach 2000 points by the end of his career (2nd behind Gretzky). He could even reach up to 2400 points. Last season he had over 150pts. Most since 1995 I believe and scoring was easier in the 70s-90s.
Now you’ve seen the big 3 modern day players Crosby, McDavid, Ovechkin. Incredible right? Another modern day player you should consider watching is Auston Mathews, not as many “highlights” and these 3 but a natural goal scorer. Make sure you watch some of the other greats from the 80s-90s like Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux. Then I think you should move on to the physical element of the game and watch some of the heavy hitters like Scott Stevens. Would love seeing your reaction watching him punish his opponents!
Great reaction and McDavid is a spectacle to watch even if you aren’t an Oilers fan. I’m a Red Wings fan so I have to suggest the magic man himself Pavel Datsuk one of the best 2 way forwards of all time.
Crosby was my fav player growing up and for sure the best payer of his generation, but McDavid's better, he's on a whole different level than everyone else in the nhl skill wise, his speed both skating and hands make 0 sense, he's clearly by the the best "fast twitch" athlete to ever play hockey. If you ever want to watch a nhl game just to watch a player, do yourself a favour and make it an oilers game because the guy is making highlight reel plays nearly every time he step on the ice, never seen anything like it. I know hockeys not the biggest sport but McDavid has to objectivly be considered probably one of the top 3 most entertaining athletes in the world to watch right now imo.
lmao your reactions were amazing. Y’all should watch more hockey clips in general. McDavid is nasty but lots of players pull off some pretty nasty shit too
Can't wait till you guy's react to Conner McDavid 2022-2023 season. He has 40 goals and 48 assists in 48 games! I'll leave it to you now! Lol! Love you guys!
Should do a reaction to Lindros, Forsberg or Mario, those three were the GOATs of what is now called the "clutch and grab era" and what they were able to do when D could literally just hold on to you was insane, the games alot faster still great yet those dudes back in the 90s were just built different they could play in any era guys now not so sure honestly. Should do a reaction to the best hockey brawls lol
Wayne Gretzky indeed played for the Oilers. He wore 99 and he was so good they retired his jersey across the league. Gretzky has more goals and assists and points than any other NHL player in history. He also scored the most goals in a season with the Oilers and won all his Stanley Cup championships there. If you do a retro video about him that would be cool. You may also want to look up Mario Lemieux who played on Pittsburgh before Crosby.
McDavid has played 7 season on his 8th right now in that time he’s put up multiple 100 point season his first year he had 48 points he was out with an injury most the year. His second season he put up 100 points his third season 105 points fourth season 108 points his fifth year 116 points. The sixth year was a shortened season cause of Covid he had 97 points the seventh year still a shorten season he managed 105 points and last year he exploded for 123 points
BRO he the best in the world! but Austin Matthews is the best shooter in the league,HE scored the most goals last year and WON MVP. Y’all should check him out💪 (ps: he scored 4 goals in his first ever game)
Best in the World Hands DOWN.. He stick handles and he has speed hard to do at the same time at that 20 miles an hour mark… He goes through four or five players to get a goal often.
These hockey reactions are great! Have you guys checked out any clips from Marc-Andre Fleury yet? He’s between the posts. You want to see some amazing saves? He’s your guy!
pittsburgh penguins stars , mario lemieux, sidney crosby, evgeni malkin, jaromir jagr.... all these guys will blow ur mind. mario and crosby are GOAT status
You guys missed out on the mid-90s, it was cool to wear hockey jerseys in hip hop culture. Check out Hey Lover by LL Cool J ft. Boyz II Men, Shawn Stockman from Boys II Men is wearing an Oilers jersey in the video, dumb fresh.
