I remember watching that a year ago. It was called the Olympics. The KHL all-stars lost.

I remember Don Cherry not being amused by that Crosby goal. Seemed to think it would put a target on his back before the draft.

Not saying it's easy or anything but all these lacrosse type goals just proves gravity works. Even you can do it with practice.

True unreal skill would be something like this.

Bruce Lee ping pong!!!

I've wondered if that is in fact real? If it is, that's absolutely crazy, but I question it.

I don't think you need to question it.

Today it could be faked but in the early 70's?...no chance. Can't find it on youtube but I remember another vid of him framing a house with his chucks and didn't miss a nail out of about 200.

Maybe not faked, but it could be exaggerated by just not including the footage where he didn't connect. For all we know, there were more clippings on the floor than film on the reel.

It is still pretty amazing though, but maybe not as flawless as it looks.

It's an actor in the video IIRC. All fake.

Is it just me or did the production value in that clip feel cleaner? I actually got a bit of an NBA dunk contest vibe from that...which I didn't for the NHL. However, I might say different if I watched the whole thing...
