I was in net for...The Michigan goal
/ cbcsports - กีฬา
It only took decades before we saw it in the NHL. Legend.
odd that it took so long
It never happened in the nhl svetchnikov did his own way very different thing
@@kowiee1008 what did Svechnikov do differently?
@@mrutherford1106 not much. He picked the puck up differently. Where the Michigan the guy got low and put strength on the puck to make it lift up a bit so he could pick it up svechnikov just pulled it back and ramped it onto his stick
@@kowiee1008 different but basically the same
The goalie’s attitude towards the goal is refreshing. Obviously hated it as a competitor, but looking back at it he can appreciate the moment. Cool to see.
Go Blue.
I was at that game in Edmonton when Philip Forsberg did the Michigan. It was odd, the entire crowd kind of went “ohhh?” When it happened and then once it played on the replay everyone went “ahhh!” Sometimes you just have to admire a beautiful goal
Now I know why it is called “the Michigan”
Mission accomplished! High five! 🤚
✋
You didn’t know
Ya dude
That’s bonkers dude dude duet dude
Lol originally watched this on a 13” TV in my kitchen. Shout Out Doug Woog!
That is awesome!
That was a big ass screen back then!
I still play at age 59, and I'm blown away by the dangles and trick shots the kids are doing these days. I remember when Legg did this (as I'm also a Michigan fan) and credit him with really putting creative hockey plays on the books to where they eventually became mainstream.
Goal should be called a Legg Up
Pretty sure a Michigan in Quebec is a chili dog, so that might be a good idea.
I went to high school with Mike Legg. Trips me out every time I see this replay.
i was too young to see it when it happened, but i saw it around 2002 and i remember back then for so long every chance i would get practice picking up the puck and twirling it around on my stick. that move/goal was probably one of the most exciting moves in hockey.
This is a great series
Glad you enjoy them!
Love his Minnesota accent haha
Gopher fan here. Love you Steve! Thanks for all the great games to watch with my son growing up in the 90's. I hate they call it "The Michigan" It should be "The Legg" to give credit to Mike. Your right, if he had missed they probably would have benched him! Hockey players were becoming very creative all through the 90's.
It should actually be called The Armstrong, because Bill Armstrong is the one who invented it and showed Mike Legg how to do it. It only got famous from Mike because it happened in such a big game.
That one where he threw it from the blue line, into the small hole, is just as impressive.
Enjoying this series, greatly.
Wondering how far back do we have to go to see the first between the legs goal that has become so much more of a staple now?
That's worth digging into the archives for...
Man, this series is awesome. You gotta ask my fave goaltender and idol Patty Roy about his last game in Montreal, a disaster, and turning that low point into his third cup in Denver. It is so cool to see their point of view. They have a very tough job for sure!
3:42 does anyone have the original link to this full length shot?
DeBus is one of the guys why I started playing goalie.
He’s a dope guy
@@carterdebus84 Yeah, met him a couple of times.
Love this series.
Hockey's version of Semi-Pro's alley oop.
As a young Gopher fan back then, this goal was the worst thing I had ever seen! I hated this goal and felt like it cheated the Gophers out of a great shot at winning the title.... as a adult I can admit it was a good goal.... but I still really really hate it
A goal can definitely be both of those things at the same time!
You guys missed one: Evan Trupp scored one in 2012 for my hometown Bakersfield Condors of the ECHL.
Nice one!
Everyone credits Svechnikov but it wasnt him
Its called "The Legger". Anybody that watched cawlidge hawkey in the 90s referred to it as such.
This style of goal should not be called the Michigan, it should be called the 'Legg Lift'
The Armstrong is what it should be called!
Lol yeah right your son got the michigan goal°! Maybe attempted it sir. That goal is far to hard for any mortal man to land consistently in nhl21.
In the big ten hockey tournament a week or so ago, a Michigan player tried to do this against none other than Minnesota but a defender was ready this time to stop it.
I hate when people call it the lacrosse goal or the Michigan, it's the Mike Legg goal, cmon people remember his name. Mike Legg has to be the most famous person who hardly anyone actually remembers his name. Everyone knows where he went to school and what he did in a hockey game but few people actually remember his name; at least that's my experience when everyone looks at me like "whaaaatt?" when I say the Mike Legg
Boi you tripping
Credit where credit's due.
Mike, is that you?
kitefan haha, I was a solid ten days old when that goal was scored
Come on man, it's the "Michigan"
Did they re-label the stick properly? Cool story
First one of your videos I've seen with a thumbs down, you've hit the big time! I think it was DeBus.
Could be...
Can someone explain to me how you do it in nhl 21, I never get the puck to stick on my tape and when it does it's not for long. Am I doing it to fast or what?
NHL Guides seems to have a pretty solid tutorial on the matter if you're digging around.
I think it also has to do with an incredible amount of luck, and a high OVR on your player. I almost managed to nail it on Be a Pro but I just lost it at the last second
@@sashaozerov3827 it's mostly about the "deking" stat not overalls in general
Also the 85 Mike Legg card has 99 Deking with his synergy
D man, #14 back off and gave Legg space to do what ever he wanted.
Minnesota was on the penalty kill... #14 was maintaining his corner of the box.
I just realized why it’s called the Michigan, because Michigan scored it xD
just when you think they've done it all, people like zegras pull off the michigan assist
Loved those skates back in the day. Pretty sure they are Bauer Supreme 3000? The all-black?
Daddy chill
The video looks stretched. (Should be in a 4x3 ratio)
I really wish the NCAA (who owns the copyright) would post the game in original broadcast quality.
Good eye! And yes, that would be nice!
@@CBCSports In case you were looking for more footage, there was a VHS put out by the Michigan athletic department called Our Day has Come. It has a lot of interviews with the players and clips from the entire season.
The national championship game Michigan won that year vs Colorado College was available on a dvd-r from the NCAA, which is why it's surprising they haven't just uploaded all of the dvd games onto youtube.
Would be great to get more of these... I wonder who gave up the first one-timer hehe
There's plenty more to watch, for sure! th-cam.com/play/PLDsQU3UFA4hWzm1IZ3VAPXN3LpH-JaJZ4.html
Not sure anyone is tracking down the orignal one-timer though ;)
@@CBCSports I've watched em all! They're great, keep em comin! How about the first ever water bottle shot?
@@GoodMenstruationAttitude Glad you enjoy them!!
Not showing Granlund's goal in the 2011 world championship Semi-final? The best of all of them
It's one of those embarrassing plays that you just gotta throw hands and start a fight to save your dignity 💀💀💀
Not really. Lol.
@@aquariuskudo yes really....
@@ThisIsSuperMusic no
are you kidding its one of the coolest goals
I agree, if I was tendy I’d just simply drop the gloves and start squaring up with dude.
SKI-U-MAH!!!
"dad! You gotta see this"
"Nah, I don't want to"
Classic. I love this guy
GO BLUE!
that’s my ex’s dad
I am going to say something most people won't like. That goal should not be allowed . It's hockey, not lacrosse. What's next the guy is going to pick up the puck and skate down the ice like guys on attack in lacrosse
Mike does that one too...nothing new for him.
These jerseys are brutal. Both yellow and black lol.
Gophers wear maroon and gold. Michigan wears blue and maize.
@@verhu010Shut up Meg
Illegal use of my private lessons. That is not his technique
This is called the Legg, not the "Michigan."
Or "lacrosse style"
Huh, that sure looked like a Michigan uniform.....
@@halbarbour7340 The player's name is Legg. That's why it's called the Legg Goal.
@@zebraneighbor6383 Huh, the name of this video is " the Michigan goal"
You're probably not a Wolverine, huh?
@@halbarbour7340 That's the point of my comment. Whoever uploaded the video mistakenly called it the Michigan goal. Just like a lot of people these days call it the Svechnikov because he did it twice, but it isn't the name of it.
kinda a weak way to score, it's hockey not lacross
90s most overated goal
😐
Mike legs is my coach
