[hawkshockeygirl]

[iljbfe11]

so much swag

[R33skylineR33]

Recorded with a toaster

[Thisizmyname]

@R33skylineR33 havn't heard that one before, stop trying to get the top comment like a fag........and no, it wasn't. quality is good...idiot

[hittman1011]

@R33skylineR33 no

stupid

kid

[TheUa11]

i love when someone knocks the stick away toews is just WTF man really

[Frozenbolt1967]

people shouldnt talk shit about toews because he was a 21 year old captain who won the cup. there is nothing else to prove for toews and he got the gold medal. oh wait he sucks. NOT, talk shit about ovechkin or someone who hasnt won anything yet. winning is the only statistic that matters. if you like finesse then you like loosers like gaborik kovalchuk semin toews is a 2 way player and kills penaltys. get off this guys back he is a captain of a championship team that is all you strive for

[Allforthelaughs]

You won a stanley cup, I met you, I got your autograph,and you got a conn smythe keep up the good work kid.

[amirjon]

the guy talking in the background of this video...do u know if he goes to vancouver often? his voice sounds familiar

[GoBlackhawk88]

Hahaha Sharpy!!!

[real4version4videos]

Toews is insane

[Wi3dMaN]

haha i love the people who are saying his stick handling sucks... clearly never played hockey

[skates89]

@Wi3dMaN There are many people who have better hands you just havent played enough to see them. His hand speed and control is average. he loses the pucks often. There are dudes who never lose the puck and are wizards with it and they arent in the nhl either. Datsyuk is clearly the best stick handler out ther

[Wi3dMaN]

@skates89 i must have missed the part in my post where i said he has the best hands in the league. toews' puck control is not average. you have no clue what you're talking about

[skates89]

@Wi3dMaN Looks pretty average to me. Nothing pretty about it at all. I have seen Russian players with much better hands at rent outs. Open your eyes there are countless gifted players today. Id say toews would have a problem executing that spin or rama that the nine year old did in between periods of an NHL game. That my friend is talent and he was only 9 years old at the time he did it, simply amazing. Hate to explode yoru egos but the world is filled with talent. Oh and I like toews as aplayer

[Wi3dMaN]

@skates89 you obviously don't watch much nhl hockey! puck control is not just about fancy moves, it's about body positioning and how you carry the puck

datsyuk has the fanciest-looking hands in the league, but by no means the best

[skates89]

@Wi3dMaN I watch plenty of NHL Hockey. i also played Minor League Hockey in the late 1980s pre lockout. Youknow when it was a scary game to play and you needed balls the size of King Kong. Im sure you remember those days right. Trust me I know all about puck control. I could shoot the puckoff your face smack you in the head with an elbow and still keep skating with the puck on my stick and a dude hanging on my back trying to pull me down after being speared in the ribs.I have seen the best of em

[skates89]

@Wi3dMaN Oh and your obviously blind then because Datsyuk is the ost talented and gifted stickhandling wizard in the entire NHL there is no one mor eslick and agile than him. he humiliates dudes one on one all the time and if you read the current opinns from countless fans of the game many agree he is the best. Its not like this is a biased opinion after all Im a Rangers fan so I have no vested interest other than telling it like I see it. they dont call him hudini for nothing

[Wi3dMaN]

@skates89 if you go on youtube and read the comments people might say that, but if you actually read intelligent opinions on good hockey boards they won't. not to say datsyuk doesn't have amazing hands, but there are a couple guys like Crosby-- who isn't nearly as fancy-- have better puck control. just watching a game over a highlight reel should tell you that.

but yes very good, datsyuk does make the prettiest dekes. well done.

[skates89]

@Wi3dMaN Hmmmm well I suppose ti is all a matter of opinion. So many gifted players with so many talents. Im just simply amazed by Datsyuk. Crosby is a great player no doubt obviously but Im not to sure he is as crafty with that puck. I supopose we could all debate till hell freezes over lol At least your open minded. I will have to pay closer attention to details as i watch the new up coming season, cant wait

[BlackMexican85]

the guys a freaking beast.

[kiker0909]

Stoner talk for sure..

[sofuccingorgeous]

hes good in games no doubt but in this vid he looks like hes got rock hands

[oDDable]

lol who shot the puck at the stick and sent it across the ice? was that keith?

[dspeev8]

@oDDable I think it might have been Sharp, he's always up to those things :p

[33cowan95]

i don't know why i am watching this when Sidney Crosby exists

[dikmo35]

@33cowan95 AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAha AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhA AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­AHAHAH, you like watching crosby cuz hes a the best actor on the ice and you like pre pubescent mustache he likes to rock, oh yeah but crosby is brain dead now so its ok.

[33cowan95]

@dikmo35 are you really going to chirp crosby when he has only played 41 games and is still 15 on the score sheet. toews had to play 70 games and he is only 6 points ahead, i dont think it really matters if you have a mustache or not if your that good at hockey.

[Jschwan1]

@33cowan95 but toew's isnt a pussy like crosby really that "hit" that gave him a concusion is as bad as being hit by a fucken foam bat....and im not even a big toew's fan

[33cowan95]

@Jschwan1 have you ever had a concussion? any shot to the head can give you one is its in the right place.

[Jschwan1]

@33cowan95 yes i have had one and it dosnt take months to fucken recover for one its was crosby's fucken fault anyway he was admiring his pass and didnt look where the fuck he was going the other guy tried to get out of the way prob could have done a better job but if crosby was a fucken moron and looked where he was going he wouldnt have gotten "hit"

[33cowan95]

@dikmo35 ok i agree with you on one thing, i have no idea why he has been out that long. but there is is nothing to say be sided that crosby is the best player in the world right now and probably will be for many more seasons. Toews is a Amazing player i will not deign, but he still comes no were close to the level crosby can play at.

[foxfactor013]

@33cowan95 Either way, they are both practicing their golf game right now! :D

[33cowan95]

@foxfactor013 HAHAHAHAHAHA i had a shitty day and that just made it a whole lot better :D

[Topshelfsniper22]

johnny's ice house fucking blows

[dikmo35]

@Topshelfsniper22 yeah that narrow ass staircase, no parking, tiny locker rooms, tiny gunzos, but they have a pretty bomb restaurant lol

[Topshelfsniper22]

@dikmo35 lol yeah we played there a few times and im pretty sure we had to put all our shit on downstairs and carry our empty bags and shoes and shit upstairs to the rink.... it was retarded

[MatthewHowardWight]

Great vid. Peace

-M H. Wight

[LamborghiniMarce]

The guy from Biodome

[dirtbikelover7]

Its pretty obvious hes canadian with those hands! ;)

[threedayssober]

rob schremp = best handles. hes undescribable

[TheMANAGEMENT101]

if you want to see handles check out Alex Kovalev. he is one of the best stick handlers in the world

[Kag775]

why is toews usin a easton stick he's sponosred by warrior lol

[letitiarox]

@Kag775 No he isn't he's been sponsored by Easton for awhile now.

[Baserios]

lmao their talking about Bio-dome.

[hockeypark]

LOL @ Sharpie hitting his stick away

[whitetuftlittlebeave]

Kovalev has the absolute best hands in the League, but only when he wants to use them! Theres no comparing, he is a god when it comes to this! Toews looks great here tho!

[str8rippon]

Wow talk about captain serious. He didn't even smile when they were messing around with him.

[rushki1000]

kovalev datsyuk semin crosby r the top stickhandlers in the nhl if u just consider the hands ovi doesnt have the best hands but he is an amazing skater so that makes up for it

[AznxNija12]

man and yet datsyuk can whip him

[geoffwylie]

@trembles97

haha. You spelt retard wrong. That's gold.

[narutoo04]

they practice it but they never actually do it that much in the game FAIL

[starhockey44]

That was terrible

[newdiego11]

p.mi ,u. .u7, 88 j 9o k8 m 

[skew06]

lol @ kane.

[Zachthekingsfan]

I like Towes but Kanes my favorite Hawks player and im not saying that cus he scored that OT goal in the Stanly Cup Final, iv liked probobly ever since he joined the team...... oh but Drew Doughtys the best :) GKG!!

[ULikeMyVideoQc]

Datsyuk better (stickhandling)

[imsigningin]

rick nash is better

[CoheedMars90]

@imsigningin disagreed. 

[pepperkorn3]

Kobe is better.

[n0ts0smarty]

hossa is a god damn beast

[steven4rmnewyork]

stick to scoring goals your stick handling and juggling sucks

[GevlinZeGreat]

parise's better

[rugby166]

uh u ever sea black jack 2?....no......oh...its accually pretty good....hahahahha halariouse

[dixxledylan]

it looked like a video game at the beginning

[bhawks007]

awesome



[ChiBulls23MJ]

Kovalev is hands down the best stickhandler in the game. Datsyuk is second best with Crosby and Kane not too far behind

[hizzleeee]

@ChiBulls23MJ

yeah, kovalev is retarded good. id put crosby in second, its just that he plays a different style of game so you dont notice it as much

[J0113]

@ChiBulls23MJ

lol ever watched Semin?

[J0113]

@ChiBulls23MJ

Lol ever watched Semin or Backstrom?

[hockeyyismylife]

@J0113 semins toe drags are ridiculous

[J0113]

@hockeyyismylife

yeah no kidding! and just his overall skill with shooting the puck is also awesome.

[osutter13]

try to do that with your head up! loser

[BERTUZZZZi]

@osutter13

HA! somebody named sutter calling others a loser... HAHAHAHAH

[BERTUZZZZi]

@osutter13

try being the best player in the Olympics while winning the Gold Medal, Stanley Cup, and Conn Smythe all in one year before u call him a loser lol.... loser

[quikfalcon]

@BERTUZZZZi Best player in the Olympics? I don't know about all that.

[XxLilOvi8xX]

americans suk.. go canada

[domoorigato]

@XxLilOvi8xX play us in any other sport and we will win. Also our hockey is on the rise as this past olympic proves. Hockey is gaining a lot of popularity in the U.S. as is soccer and soon the U.S. might just be the number one in both.

[fenderboy34]

whos the other guy, hes better than toews

[giutable]

hahahhaha Toews gave a hard look to the guy who throught the puck on his stick... 3 seconds later, the guy come back like a submissive kid who just did something wrong, and searching forgivness... witch Toews didn't gave... Cptn serious owns it ... even those little bitches! BHK for the cup!!!

[Arsen1c42]

rofl he gets so upset when sharp smacks the stick out, at least i think it was sharp lol

[RandeleighWas3]

1:15 he just looks up like, wth dude. pretty sure thats sharpy.

[XxprodigyxXdangler]

if anyone is talkin shit on toews there idiots. this guys sick and idk hes in the Show

[evanderlazer]

lol Datsyuk disappears in big games, and if he is apart of a championship its no thanks to his linemates tepping up and doing all the work like Zetterbergs conn smythe, lidstrom, franzen etc.. Choked with Russia in 2010 and had 1 goal in 20 playoff games last year. His playoff points per game is lower than Joe choke artist Thornton. Godd hands but thats it.

[SuperNJdevils9]

its mad funny how everyone kept moving this stick

[benjamaniac08]

slapshot 2 sux

[hatecrew32]

1:09 :DDD so funny

[MrHman33]

Sounds like these guys have fun at practice.

[kikkoman1231]

who's the second player stickhandling.. ben eager?

[miguelisms]

head up!!! now we know why Toews got his clocked cleaned this season lol

[CmanCorporations]

that was awesome how they were stick handling over that stick.. wow.

i'm still pretty noob to hockey which is why that is difficult for me to do.

[a5a4a3a2a1a0]

i have to admit evh kovalev is really good but dam im from chicago and the hawks are so amazing this season fuck

[JuggernautG24]

hey Chicago have fun trying to re sign Toews and Kane. Thank you Hossa!

[lainesedore999]

they just signed them u dumbass

[JuggernautG24]

haha you should see who there letting go :)

[thedoolinator]

they did resign toews and kane. dont you look stupid :)

[JuggernautG24]

hey i do look like a fool now. did you see who there letting go?? haha just wait til the then of the year. and if Chicago doesnt win then your guys are going to be the 1's looking like kids with down syndrome

[bhawks22]

lol bye bye buff and huet. Problems solved. Dip shit

[ellovestumbling332]

@JuggernautG24 we won the stanley cup... and tht was really rude to mention down syndrome... my best friends sister has it and she is really smart. and furthermore if your not a blackhawks fan y are you commenting and watching this? grow up

[JuggernautG24]

@ellovestumbling332 you did... kudos now look at your team. stock up for 1 amazing season and then lose your team except your stars. good luck building! and if you never sad something out of context ever please continue with your argument. i like Toews he is a good leader so ill watch his vid and Kane is American so ill support him, favorite player is Hossa not a blackhawks fan but they had a good year. good luck repeating... joke. and best of luck to your friends sister?

[letitiarox]

@JuggernautG24 We don't have to rebuild the only ones we lost who could of helped out this season were Versteeg and Ladd.

[ChiHawks24]

It was fun. We got them all now!

[saucyboy123]

hey, they did. LOL@U

[RaDa67]

damn.. the thing at 0:47.. is dirtyy... now if he could do that over the blade of a stick that effectively while skating at game speed..

[evh5150316]

He probably can. Actually many players in the NHL do that.

[kewlnsimpguy]

hes one of the top players at it but you guys have to understand kovalev is on a fucking other planet

[thechez29]

except he disappears for weeks at a time and doesn't do anything. then you see a highlight reel goal, then he disappears again.

[kewlnsimpguy]

yea now that hes old not when he was younger

[evh5150316]

We're not talking about a GAME. Toews isn't stick handling in a GAME, in this video.

Kovalev is probably has the best hands of any player in the NHL even at the age of 35.

[thedoolinator]

patrick kane. best hands in the big leagues

[Thrashersfan101]

datsyuk has the best hands

[thedoolinator]

the last two times hawks played wings were both 3-0 victories for the better team.

and datsyuk got shut down, but kaner did not

move over grandpas, time to let the kids play

[judopuns]

Datsyuk is a grandpa my ass.

[bishoppx]

You should try playing a game without Toews, Kane, Hossa, Keith, and Seabrook and see how good you do against the full Wings line-up. That's only 5 guys out and not the 12 that the Wings had.

[hizzleeee]

hahahahaha good one!

you should try playing a game with both your hands tied behind your back and blindfolded.

[vitali113]

@bishoppx dumbest thing i ever heard. chump

[bishoppx]

@vitali113 How so?

[thedoolinator]

@bishoppx

ya cus then they only have byfuglien and sharp who both almost made their respective national teams, Kopecky who played in the olympics, Madden one of the best defensive forwards in the league, Campbell an all-star, Versteeg the runner up for rookie of the year in his year, Bolland Versteeg and Ladd who made up the line that was praised so heavily in the playoffs for shutting down Sedins, Sharks and more. Sorry that the hawks only have 5 of the best players in the league and not more..

[bishoppx]

@thedoolinator What are you talking about? What's your point here?

[84Dogde]

@Thrashersfan101 datsuk doesnt i was watching a video of crosby stick handling at practice and the comments were i am a datsuk fan but crosby has better hand then datsuk

[ymember3]

@84Dogde No body cares about the comments for some youtube video, take a look at datsyuk's ability by just watching him in a game, he has that ability to make crazy moves at play-off style pressure he is amazing

[Xogennybeanxo]

@Thrashersfan101 naaaaa dany briere all the way

[TheY4eva]

@Thrashersfan101 shut up he's old.

[holobalobalo]

@Thrashersfan101 I dunno. Crosby, Kovalev, Toews, Kane, there are some pretty good hands in the NHL. I don't think you could single any one person out as best at this point.

[J0113]

@Thrashersfan101

And Semin after.

[evanderlazer]

@Thrashersfan101 better hands does not equate to better hockey player or more clutch.

Datsyuk is a notorious choke artist and its all down hill from here.

[motleycrueforlife1]

@Thrashersfan101 shut up stay off this video if your just going to trash players i dont think you could do any better so stut the fuck up

[Navdeepsmom]

@motleycrueforlife1 How the FUCK, is he trashing towes? He just said datsyuk has the best hands which is true. You sir are a fucking retard btw. Why would you compare him to an nhl hockey player? No shit towes would win you fuck

[m420carbine4]

@Thrashersfan101 what about Hossa?

[evh5150316]

I was going to post a comment about Kovalev but then I read yours.

Watch this video and thena  vid of Kovalev stick handling!

Alex makes Toews look like he doesn't know what he is doing.

[nikebauer1993]

he was doing that handling then everyone came over and ruined it lol,

[datsyuk134life]

does who think this is impressive have not heard about alexei kovalev

[e246HI]

this is the BEST!!!!!!!!!

[jasnessa13]

Wooohhooo!! new drill 4 me!!

[mrsjonathantoews]

wooohh hes got so much talent !

those amazign hands LOL :P

go toews u rock buddy !

[wendel88]

hahaa he has just worked on the hands for a long time..with the right amount of training everyone can do that.

[mrsjonathantoews]

ahh uh sure?

and btw he is amazing! its not only the hands!

[wendel88]

well he has been playing the game all his life.. i mean if someone got me a stick at a young age..and i played everyday for lets say 14 years..i think i would be able to do that hahaa. what many dont see when they look at us hockeyplayers is that we work on these things ALOT ! its almost scary how many hours we spend on doing stickwork.

[danblaze83]

the same could be said of anything in life.

[tw1869]

no respect for the captain,

poor toews

[ChiSports85]

Go Hawks in the playoffs, Toews rocks

[PureLtFan]

Gotta love 1:11 always happens if you do that :D

[Iceev36]

"that guy from bio-dome"

[lamplighter999]

jesus christ

[9arshi9]

jonnys good some cute moves lol

[ambugchick03]

who is the guy that hit his stick in the first place?? then the guy who was stick handling at the end of the video???

[duelly111]

the guy who hit his stick was patrick Sharp

[irvpoker2007]

yeah then he took his puck

[silv3rz]

looks like big ben eager

[TigerStyle4334]

if that dude put his head down any further then his lips would touch the ice

[flood25]

yaoh clearly don't follow hockey or he's from detroit so either way he is forgiven..

[yaoh]

when i see that i understand the chicago bad results

[milkandmeat]

what bad results? 3rd most points in the west
