Turco saves Shannon shoot out attempt - YouTube
1. Turco totally bit on that fake too and he still got it which means: (1) it's totally saveable if a goalie doesn't bite. (2) It's still saveable EVEN if the goalie bites via hailmary acrobatics.
2. Video is in 2006. So the saveability of this move isn't just a new found discovery to combat this move.
Soooooooooooooooooo we were saying? Unstoppable eh? |
1) Notice how early Shannon performs the spinorama. He's still near the faceoff circle.
2) Note that he performs the spin before even cutting across half way of the net, meaning the goalie doesn't commit to sliding across as much.
If Shannon executed it properly like every other player, the puck would have been long in the net before Turco's desperate attempt to sprawl out.
Since 2006, a save was made on this butchered attempt.
Not sure have there been one since, if you even want to count this one.
