In 1996, University of Michigan ice hockey player Mike Legg pulled off what was described as a “lacrosse-style” goal in an NCAA playoff game. But, for as quickly as the never-before-seen motion burst onto the scene, it disappeared until 2019 when Carolina Hurricanes right wing Andrei Svechnikov executed the move in a game. Players began rushing to develop the technique, which has now become a legitimate scoring threat used by pros and youth players alike.

Good on Legg for giving Billy Armstrong credit immediately

Mikael Granlund deserves some credit for putting the Michigan back into the public spotlight in 2011 during the World Championships against Russia

I bet that's where Svechnikov got the idea.

@OwlRTA 18 дней назад

@@404MULTIFAIL He actually said that he first saw the move done when Granlund did it, and his brother, Evgeny, taught him the move. Andrei must've been watching this game live on TV as an 11-year-old in awe of the move.

Ah, brings back great memories of the great '90s Michigan Hockey teams. I was at the "Michigan goal" game at Munn. That goal by Legger turned the game around and put us on the path to the title in Cincy. (I was there too!) I also remember a legendary four goal game by Legg at Yost Ice Arena. Go Blue!

Not to brag, but I pulled off a Michigan goal during a spring hockey game before Mike Legg. Back in the late 80’s early 90’s all the kids were trying to pick the puck up. The Michigan just seemed like the natural thing to do when you picked it up on your stick behind the net. But props to Mike for pulling it off on the National stage during high stakes. Legendary stuff.

@innercityprepper 14 дней назад

There are things like it in other sports. The "Cruyff Turn" for example in soccer. There's also something that nobody really did in basketball, the "slam dunk" that now is an everyday occurrance.

@dantar3251 День назад

This style of goal needs to be made illegal it can’t be defended if the defense slashes at the stick to knock the puck off they be called for slashing. I am not saying it not creative but its got to go I bet most nhlers have the ability to do it

@CxrsonYo 18 дней назад

Should be called the “Svech” or “Svechnikov”, and not the Michigan. Sure, Michigan is where it was first done, but Svech had the first 2 in the league and another one recently. Time to rename it for god sakes.
