I handshake like this with my best mate all the time

saw this on a meme and rushed here asap. cannot believe it’s real

I come from one topic at the time, thank you good man

@@cinnamonknick-knack2037 I to hail from ot’s channel, this was a great handshake, I’m sure they were great “friends”

@@mattyred3973 As I do as well, I agree, they seem like amazing “bros”

As a fellow gae boi, they definitely seem “close”

Same. Sure do miss that Finnish Flash.

That Ducks team was a one-hit wonder but what a team they were to watch.

That was beautiful. The Finnish Flash was a classy man.

Yeah he's definitely the iron man of hockey

Yeah but going to his beer league games for the 30 years after will be kinda cool too

I will be more than choked up. I will likely be dead

I had to google it, I assumed when he left the NHL, he retired. I was clearly wrong. 49 and still going strong.

Hahahaha.. I was just choked up thinking about being a young boy during Teemus rookie year and then I read this.. HAHAHA

I believe it was the ceremonial "passing of the talent torch" were lucky to see it on camera! gretz got it from howe the same way and mario gave it to sid. its usually very private and much more...involved

@@MRenfro97 I knew Gretzky's parents back in the day. Sweetest people on earth!

@@MRenfro97 dude💀

@MRenfro Dear God! Sid will give it to McDavid or Matthews and by the time they retire ....🤮...Don't think my stomach is strong enough for NHL anymore ...and you didn't even talk about " stick handling " ....

Welp. Now I am shipping Jagr-Gretzky.

@@sadrevolution hahahaha

fr bruh

Oh my god that's funny.

Nah, too old for him :) Jagr is DiCaprio of ice hockey, either you are in your 20s or your are gone.

Seriously! I don't know, and don't need to know, any of the context of that clip. All I need is to see Bettman get left hanging, and I am a fan of the other guy!

Anything to embarrass Bettman.

This picture should've been #1 and it didn't even make the top 10. lmao

Yea its an iconic picture that all NHL players and fans have seen at least once. Must be because LeafNet can't stand either team.

That was the strange essence of the sport. There was what happened on the ice and real life.

same bro

As a Canucks fan I always wonder why that one gets forgotten in these sorts of things...

Yeah, this one always gets overlooked. Pretty disappointing. That game was full of amazing sportsmanship moments from the Canucks, their fans as well as my Flames.

@McLaden Jankovic Please ... he declined many fights and don't play that ''he chose not to fight for the team'' card.. Each of his opponant were smaller.

yes! that was great sportmanship!

@@MV-rt4hy too bad ovi cant show sportsmanship

@@zugbrugh6472 ovi’s a great guy, wdym?

Or Karlsson telling Crosby to win another cup

Or if he gave him some tongue that would've been unreal!! Chills!!!

well they did french

“2nd greatest scorer” -well, he was great but he played relatively healthy until he was 46. Just sayin’

@@gymguy25 He was never less than a top-6 forward. Even when he was in Calgary. And he gave away three years in his mid-30s playing in Russia.

@@UnleashthePhury He's 2nd all time in pts but what I was saying is, he's not the 2nd greatest scorer, Orr and Lemieux would have outscored him had they played longer and healthier, Howe would have outscored him in a different era, Crosby, McDavid and Mackinnon could pass him eventually, the things that could stop them are the era in which they're playing and health.

@@gymguy25 Orr played 20 or so years before Jagr where scoring was easier as the Goalie equipment was not that bulky as in the late 80s/90s until the league put a stop to the ridiculous gear the GK's had, Gretzky was the superstar in every team he played, Jagr was not the number one guy with his first stint with the Pens (that was SuperMario)... And I think it is an achievement of its own to stay fit and healthy enough to play in the NHL until the age of 46 of course luck is also a factor in that respect, but there is only a limited amount of luck to go around... McDavid and Mackinnon we will see how their career turns out...

@@sksaddrakk5183 Between 1981-1996 (if you exclude the lockout year), the NHL had an average of twelve 100 pt scorers a year, much more than in any other era. Jagr played 6 seasons in those high scoring years, in Orr's essentially 9 seasons, only 4 times did a non-Bruin reach 100 pts.

History is forgotten far too often unfortunately.

Thanks for bringing it up because it's the greatest handshake of all-time. Mind you this is Sportsnet so anything to do with the Habs is totally ignored!

And now all of Canada is crying about penalties against Montreal. Really weird.

🤣😂

@RapidDecisions The only response I'd expect from a fanboy. He was ejected pretty quickly by Boston and has handcuffed two teams with his horrid play and contract. He'll be known for his inability to play, more than his cup. I'm sure he doesn't care, but I do and apparently so do you;) Sorry I hurt your v*gina.

@@polkhigh3333 well..... he made the NHL and you didn’t , so,,,,,,

@@matthewthorpe9641 No, but I scored four touchdowns in a single game once. Suck it!

@@polkhigh3333 under 12 junior football doesn’t count.

@@matthewthorpe9641 Its a joke that has to do with his youtube screen name.

Ok LETS GO CANUCKS!

LEEETTSSS GOO CANNUUCCKKSSSSSSS

Let's Go Canucks

wow man go take another vaccine, cry baby.

one of the true POS guys of the league. it's a small category fortunately.

@@thecount1001 That's perspective. He was very annoying but at least he didn't try to hurt people on a nightly basis. And he could take as good as he gave. Do I miss him playing? NO!! Do I think he's hilarious now that he's out of the league? Yes!! Would I like to have a beer with him? Yes!!

@@thecount1001 Youre a clown man. Likely never stepped on ice in your life. Avery was and IS a world class player. Kerry Fraser even speaks nothing but praises.

@@davidthomas6949 yeahhh...that's why he had an average of 40games played per year, and kept being traded or sent to the AHL every 18months. Guys was a cancer both for his opponents and his own team. Weasels from today's NHL are so classy compared to him lmao

Him shooting out the lights in his 76 goal rookie campaign.

All the way

I also remember him saying, before his last game that it was 99% certain he was retiring 😉

Neat

me lol

There's a reason we still don't like him in Detroit and it's not because of his talent.

@@moappleseider1699 That was low. His response was even worse.

Cry more, we drink your tears.

That is one of those "Don't Celebrate Too Early" things. I would have been of the mind of "How did that just happen?" after sweeping the Presidents' Trophy winners.

Lemiuex chose that number on purpose to emulate Gretzky. He litteraly turned 99 upside down to get 66, he had that much respect and admiration for the Great One.

@@brandonmoorat2263 Yeah he was an idol instead of a bitter enemy lol.

Not even one?

Wayne G is a star

😭

Still gives me nightmares. Habs got revenge for 2011.

Wow! Moves like him. Jim Schonfeld?

Nah Brodeur was always overweight

@@DrZaius Hahaha! I just did his BMI from his metrics on wiki (I have no idea when they are from). I guess you are right.

@@DrZaius yeah and so are his goalie records... Avery was an ass on every team in every game he played

@@EvilSpinner yeah but at least he didn't bang, and then marry, his sister in law.

you gonna cry?

@@cosmogamer9914 ur prob a leafs fan

@@cosmogamer9914 no Avery does enough crying for all of us
