I like Ovi’s goal against Montreal where he bank passed the puck to him self while spinning around the defenseman

Definitely crosby splitting buffalo's whole team and protecting the puck with one hand and then the strength and accuracy to put it in the perfect spot while still being pressured is remarkable to me shows his skill. Also Datsyuk pulling back the puck and flipping its over the blocker the amount of patience and finesse it takes is remarkable.

It’s crazy how Mathew’s in the league with Ovechkin but Austin was at the game as a kid.

Gotta be the datsyuk in game in turco i believe, guy looked like he used the jedi force to move the goalie out of the way

gotta go with at least one of datsyuk or mcdavids, it‘s just pure control in every movement. not to take anything away from ovis back slide or zegras‘ alley oop.

Best goal ever is hands down Ovi falling down and curling around his back. But the skilled one is up for debate for sure, either the lacrosse goals or McDavid style deking through 4 guys.

auston "hometown coyotes" matthews

Pavel Datsyuk has a few beauties...

Ovie’s goal when he’s lying on his back and Sid’s one handed backhand

Ovi hands down. The Michigan or that Zegras assist can be replicated.

crosby's one hand wrist shot through 3 defenseman tops it for me

So many out there, but I still sometimes think about that Afinogenov spinorama goal where he pulled it between his legs 2-3 times right at the top of the crease

This poll should be which one of Datsyuks goals is the most skilled goal in the history of NHL.Mine is that backhander against sharks i have never seen a player score that kind of goal while defensman is pressing you.and i would put Ovi goal there too

McDavid vs the entire New York roster was one I witnessed in person so it's pretty special but Datsyuk was always my fav player growing up so one of his prob my fav

Ovis goal is «The Goal» of the NHL

Ovi is so amazing 👏👏👏

Jagr’s goal against Philly where he bats his own rebound out of the air while on the ground sliding towards the net

Datsyuk againist Chicago

Pavel Bure when he put it in his skate and passed it back to his forehand all at full speed during pre-season

this one might be one u dont know much of but when crosby in the 00s went on a breakaway at a lot of speed and had a pass like 2 feet and front of him then he batted it in.

Sedins against calgary, the one where he tape to tape redirected a point shot, then went between the legs for the hatty

Ovechkin full stop.

Ovi's was beautiful to watch but there was a lot of luck and many are doing the lacrosse goal now so it cant be seen as the most skilled. But I have not seen anyone score like some of McDavid's goals so his are the most skilled. Underrated because some rank it like 3rd or 4th best is the goal against Toronto when he went around Morgan I think. His awareness, speed, shiftiness, edge work, stick handling...was amazing. The goal against the NYR was amazing to but I think the goal against Toronto was better. It is one thing to shoot through a person but to literally go around him like a pylon while both were skating is something I have not seen before; not like that anyway. That was not luck or a gimmicky goal, it was talented.

How about when Mario Lemiuex made Ray Bourque look like an AHLer.

Ovi’s goal will never be replicated

Mine is Ovechkin's goal vs the coyotes years ago where he fell and hit it in

matthews already thinking about going back home to arizona

Giroux has a bunch. Like the one against the Lightning. Or his backhander from the goal line against Columbus. Ovie has a few too. The one people talk about was more luck than skill. The one I like from him was the bank pass to himself as he spins the other way, then goes in and gets a sick goal on top of it. Jagr holding the puck for like, 10 seconds, just putting the puck through all kinds of traffic then wrists one in. There's too many to count.

These kids today. 😂 “Maybe Trevor Zegras.” 😂😂😂

Ovi falling over is the best goal in nhl history no debate

One of the best was when Denis Savard scored that shorty against Edmonton. He just skated wherever he wanted and I looked like the Oilers were moving so fast while Savard moved so effortlessly. And then he deked out Fhur

Ovechkin and Milano goal

For me pavel bure scored some exciting goals .

What about mcdavid?

I remember just being speechless when Geno scored of the faceoff win forward to himself behind the net, 360 no scope top corner tea baggins the Hurricanes entire team in the playoffs in 09’ but honorable mention to McCarty dangling the entire Flyers D for the Cup winning goal in I think it was 97’. Maybe not the greatest ever but both unreal in the moment and playoff stage gets extra points.

No goal with ever match Ovi’s.

OVI TOP!

Many of the Peter forsberg goals

crosby’s one handed goal

Ovi off his back

It's oveckins. How it's even possible that he scores on that goal is amazing. You can't recreate what he did, and he did it as a rookie. Zegras is great but I've seen that happen, Ovis goal is by itself.

Mines gotta be that one handed backhander from Crosby off the rush… unreal lift

Henrik's no look tip pass to set up Daniel vs Calgary

I haven’t watched yet but I think there will ovi’s sliding goal

Ovy goal had ccm make skates with how to do his move in drawing

Crosby 1 handed wrist shot on the backhand was ridiculous and basically impossible

Trevor zegras

Nah mcdavid against 4 rangers or against Morgan Reilly are the most skilled goals

I still like Kamensky's in 97.

Ovi in his back 100%

Datsyuk could have his own list.

Nobody’s gonna say Matthew’s goal in his first game

These kids haven't seen Pavel Bure play hockey..

Rick Nash CBJ vs. Coyotes. Two defenders all over him. Game winner with less than 30 seconds left.

No one said any of the baseball swings by Crosby?

i think its gotta b the ovi one or the when where zegras passes it to milano like that

the kucherov no-move

Mario Lemieux breakaway

Mario against Minnesota in 91 cup final

Who did the toe drag and then flicked the puck up slowly?

i think mcdavids 1v4 or 5 agaisnt new york was pretty good

The Michigan

2:04 - datsyuk did try the same

Nash vs coyotes

Andrei Svechnikov lacrosse goal. Both of them 😏😏😏

I don’t know how nobody comment on mcdavids goals

Unpopular opinion: that ovi goal was mostly luck and a little skill

McDavid’s 1v4

Ovi...falling

Datsyuk has many great ones.

I'd go for Jagr falling down and bat it in.

Datsyuk against Dallas, Calgary, San Jose. People talking about the most skilled goal. Not ovechkins lucky goal sliding it backwards. Yeah try replicating it. Luck not skill, or it would be replicated like the Michigan is now. Most skilled player is Datsyuk. Best pure goal scorer Ovechkin. Facts a fact.

The goal when mario guided the puck between ray bourques legs. Maybe not the most "skilled" goal but it definetly was the smartest

Idk how people think ovis goal is so good, maybe it was intentional, but when you have to question wether it is or not, it just isn’t the best goal

Not a hater, I think he’s a chill guy and a great talent, but I cannot stand how Hughes talks

All hall datsyuk

McDavids 5 man deek against the Rangers. Is the greatest I've ever seen

Trevor Zegras!!!

Zegras' goal, while not in a game, at the skills comp was thr most amazing one I've ever seen. Ovi's goal, many of Mario's, a few of gretz's, messier's goal v islander cup final 84, dutsuk, some of Sid's, filip forsberg lacrosse goal at speed, a couple of jagrs..the last goes on. But that zegras goal in the skills comp was the best I've seen in 40 yrs. Looked like he had pine tar or spider tack on the blade in that final spin move.

wow no one said rick nashes goal?

ppl who say the lacrosse move, is…… you know how many times ppl have don’t that move. how many times ppl have done ovi’s signature goal, oh wait none. ovis is the best goal in history

Tbh it definitely isn’t a laccrose goal in my mind

It’s like Denis Savard never existed

Only the best goal every scored denis savard spina-rama nothing comes close Who,s with me

Lacrosse goals suck in hockey IMO. They are a gimmick play. Moving a goalie with your mind like Pavel Datsyuk is where it's at. #99 scored a few next level goals as well but wouldn't expect the kids of today to know them.

Stevie Yzerman,s overtime goal stoled the puck from Gretzky came down the right side rip a slap shot just passed the blue line top right corner….. and did I say Game 7 playoff s

Best wishes for young players and injury free Aameen

ov

Artyom Galimov did Ovi's goal better sadly

lol whats the most skilled goal of all time? like ever? oh last weeek brraaahh

Hate to say it but these Zegras goals are so overrated. That michagan pass only worked cause sabres defence is as clueless as a peewee house team. The michagan goal was sweet but not even close to greatest of all time. You just need a little time and space.

figures tom wilson got a busted mug 😑

Zegras is a rookie and is mentionned in this list twice. Let that sink in

If for terry the most skilled goal is zegras goal ,than he never watched nhl

The Zegras to Milano over the net was in fact a high stick, if you watch the replay the puck makes contact with Milano's toe of his stick which was still above the cross bar.. that goal shouldn't have counted.. it was close but when watched frame by frame its quite easy to tell the toe of the stick makes contact with the puck while still above the cross bar.. im not a Buffalo fan, im a Hockey fan and Great hockey plays should at least be legal.

Again, Ovechkin is on just about every list there is in hockey. Top, 3? Top 5? Top 10? He is in there. No other player comes remotely close.

The Michigan was cool at first but now its starting to get old and overdone

You want to see the most skilled player in NHL history? Watch Bobby Orr.

Easily Ovi’s goal against the yotes. And I’m not even a huge ovi fan

most skilled goal? sssssoo... best goal?
