I have never seen a penalty shot like this 

He’s like the happy Gilmore of goalies… you don’t need to save it if they don’t even shoot it

@@rhys.ladouceur4107 It's a highly undervalued aspect of goal tending. A goalies job isn't to make saves. It's to prevent goals. If you can do that by blocking a cross crease pass, or poke checking, or angling a guy to a point where he has nothing to shoot at and just holds onto the puck those situations are just as good as saves.

Tkachuk should have been awarded the goal on a tripping penalty by Kochetkov

He is put in a terrible position almost every game 😂

He missed the puck and took out Brady's legs though. It was 100% a penalty

Hahaha that's funny and true!

Just without the cup or whatever

Binny has a cup dude, get over it

Except a stanley cup champion

Couldnt have said it better 😂

​@@jaredlalonde2078absolutely, during the era of Patrick Roy, Chris Osgood, Ron Hextall, and Billy Smith, goalies were tough as nails.

@@BarnJI think the person above is a bit young to remember this maybe

Absolutely. I instantly fall in love when the goalie does something like this.

Ron Hextall 2.0

Hasek used to pokecheck a lot

He broke out two years ago for the Canes. Kochetkov has been a great addition for their goalie line up. I saw the one on Edmonton he did last year in person. PNC went wild that night as it happened.

I'm a bit gay for Kochetkov, too.

​@@esperagoin russia?

@@planetcaravan2925 No. Never in Russia.

Kochetkov is the next starting goalie for the Hurricanes within the next few years. He got his debut in the playoffs against the Bruins and handled the pressure perfectly, almost got into a fight with Marchand lol. His nickname with Canes fans is "Koochie" and he is well beloved. He doesn't have the best save pct but his aggression on the puck keeps shots from being taken in the first place. He's just very fun to watch, I think once he gets more games under his belt he'll really start to shine.

He does them regularly

DIrty ass goalie going right for the skates, obviously would be mad....

I mean, Kotchekov went for the trip on a penalty shot instead of going for the puck. I'd be more worried if a player just walked away quietly after a goalie makes a dangerous play

@@shawnhetherington9921 poke check, not a trip, poke check, got it bud?

@@bradenalbertson6367 I mean, pause at 2:18 / 2:19 . The poke check is on the complete opposite side of where the puck is. Poke checks are all fine and fun to watch, but a poke check gets the puck. This was just a trip to the skate, the poke check is nowhere near the puck lol

@@bradenalbertson6367 If your eyes saw pucks other than the one in play, then I think you've got floaters or a dead retinal spot. Get checked out for other stroke symptoms.

Thats tripping plain and simple. Not a poke check.

@@joemccafferty6158 Poke check, and not tripping because the rules state once the puck is shot or control of the puck is lost the play is immediately over. He lost control of the puck and it ends up in Kochetkov's pads. Play over. End of story.

@@joemccafferty6158 Tripping were a result of coming in contact with big block of milled spruce in my view.

That was dirty poke.

@@robertlavigne9828not saying it wasn’t just that it paid off big time

In the short term I completely agree. But he just opened the door to players targeting goalies@@jackoblllllllll

@@robertlavigne9828 it’ll be fine

@@robertlavigne9828 I dont think so. I think he was playing the deke, but he never deked right. It was an anticipation move, rather than a dirty move.

Именно так

Maybe if the NHL allowed sticks to be picked up again during play it would never have been a penalty. (THIS IS SARCASM) As in PICK UP THE DAMN STICK AND PLAY

@@madadhdbrain They do though?? A goaltender can literally grab their stick if it's within reach and play is in the zone. You can't shoot a stick back to the goalie that's the only rule regarding players picking up their sticks. Both that and you can't play with a broken stick obviously.

@@CapraObscura10.4 “a goaltender may continue to play with a broken stick until stoppage of play or until another is brought to him by a teammate”

@@madadhdbrainyou could always pick up a stick unless its broken

@@CapraObscura SARCASM dude, damn...

Right? I'm an old geezer now, but when I was in the net, poke checks were so demoralizing to anyone coming in with the puck. Also, waatching him stack the pads and move like he does is just great stuff.

⁠@@stringlarson1247Pyotr made a legit save and Brady was being a crybaby about it !! 😭

Не думаю, что вратарь сборной России может быть посредственным...

@@MrManfly I agree with you. His game prep must include watching a lot of 'film' of oppenents key puck handlers and having all that info in his head. Knowing how guys tend to move, their speed and agility is key to knowing are aggressive he can be and not get burned. Not every minder has the speed and reaction time to cut off the angles and still recover for a follow-up shot, etc. When I have time to watch a game, I tend to watch the minders when the puck isn't even close to their end.

@@stringlarson1247 No, his game involves looking at the other players skate and sticking his stick under it

People say that until tendy gets a skate to the throat

has a goalie ever had a Howie Hatty before this incident?

​@ryan.8783 according to an article from the Edmonton Sun; Mike Smith got one for the Oilers a few years ago and it said he joined the club of Chris Osgood, Ron Hextall, Jose Theodore and technically Billy Smith who was the last to touch the puck when an opponent knocked it into his own goal. A regular search however says it's never happened once tho; so this information on this seems difficult to ascertain.

@@thunderhammerx2966 so the short answer is no, the long answer is i don’t know? sounds about right for searching an obscure stat/topic

​@ryan.8783 was more of a maybe, but pretty much. Still, an interesting topic. Perhaps there's more info somewhere that deals with lesser known statistics.

he is a spoiled child

and that's why he's such a great player!

@@Simone-uu8ne A great player with 0 leadership skills and has 0 playoff series after 8 years of a rebuild and at least 5 of management claiming the rebuild's done??

He's a fierce competitor that gets heated. That doesn't make him a spoiled child ! 😂

Yall wish u had him😂

like the old days...i think they should shrink the pads and equipment and make the goalies use their quickness agility and skill. i think a few goalies would be gone right away, as many of them are just big with big pads.. they just basically stand there.. .this would create more goals and more exitement .

@@mr.xblade I think it would be cooler to see those 1990s pads again. Kenesky, Heaton, early Vaughn, Aeroflex, etc. Just those big 12" pads again.

​@@mr.xbladeget rid of the stupid trapazoid, let them play the puck like old days

You should watch the Hurricanes more, Kochetkov does this stuff all the time

@@mr.xbladethey recently shrank the pads which is why scoring is up

And best player on the team! Wish you were that goofy huh?

If so then they never will be

Yeah, only difference: Kochetkov tripped Brady Tkachuk, he didn't poke check him. Another penalty and a minor should have been due.

Should have been an auto goal for throwing the stick

@@Bikerbobber well, an interesting idea. Anyway, the goalie has surely broken the rules twice, the latter one was also a player safety issue. I have the feeling this is not the last time we hear about him, and not in the good way. I never thought I would support Brady Tkachuk.

A goalie isn’t allowed to intentionally drop his stick in the goal crease. It is part of the interference rule. (Please do not argue the stick wasn’t dropped in the crease, but right out of it. A ref can’t have that type of eye sight. It was close enough). Allegedly, Koch does this often, and was probably warned by the refs much like Murray was warned last year about knocking the net off. That’s why it was a penalty. ‘Throwing the stick’ was just the Refs way of clarifying what the interference was.

This isn't about quick

Do it enough and these players will make you look foolish. Kutznetsov comes down real slow so if you time it right, he can't do anything. Goalies saw that numerous times and adjusted.

@@richardprescott5939 Well it's not like back in the 80s they did it all the time but a player puts his head down then yea you do it, it also keeps the players guessing because now they know a goalie isn't going to challenge them. That is why Kutznetsov was so successful he was able to get in very close w/goalies basically just backing up too far and he had a lot of shoot at from just a few feet out. You look at that play and you see Wedgewood not back in as much as nearly all goalie does and he holds his ground and then pounces. Could of probably done it a little earlier if he did a full poke check but I get they don't really teach that so it's going to take some time for goalies to learn it and use it when needed not always.

they're maybe the only ones among the newer players who can still play hockey as it should. No prima donna.

I actually disagree here. Matthew has matured *a lot* from how he used to act in his first few seasons in the league, he's grown to a pure player who has leadership skills up and down, clutch in the playoffs as well. Brady though yeah no he's still a classless asshat when you get down to it lmao

@@Simone-uu8ne as it should be? You think being a man child unable to control your emotions and turtling after people retaliate for your cheap shots is how hockey should be?

Brady pretty much our only enforcer so yea I like the way he plays

I can't stand either one of them.

Very ironic that the guy with a Marvin the Martian pfp is trashing the Senators lol. (that's not a dig at the dude commenting, but it's funny considering Senators' former goalie Patrick Lalime had several Marvin the Martian helmets)

Ha! I forgot about that. I suppose if the headgear fits...@@HarryRiceHockey

A little harsh of a declamation. From what I've seen of both Tkachuks, they definitely have their dad's grit and short fuse. However, Matthew is by far a more complete player overall, whereas, Brady is a hothead who should not have the C on his jersey for his continued tantrums and poor sportsmanship. Being fiery and playing with passion is one thing, but his conduct just reflects poorly on his teammates, and he doesn't represent them well. If Brady cut that routine out, and funneled that energy into playing better hockey, Ottawa might actually be in contention this season.

Thats putting it mildly.

😂 I’d like to speak to your general manager!

He handles his emotions worse than my toddler.
