Ilya Kovalchuk's Shootout Attempt (November 10 2010)

[mingDIAL14]

That was good....on opposite day.

[DevilsFan973]

Kovalchuk has the best shootout stats in the league right now, so rofl at these idiots who watch this video and assume random shit. Kovalchuk is amazing, and at hes amazing at shootouts too.

[10Andysoccer]

Maudit Mauvais --

[CHIZ4]

Obviously nobody watched the 2nd half of the devs, prob best team in the league once lemaire took the reigns...kovalclutch....him n parise r guna be studs this yr

[wasayin]

you suck kovalchoke

[FrozenKing18]

Enroth's reaction is just pure win!

[DevilsFan973]

rofl, you kids are retarded. This is what you sound like: My team sucks too much and couldn't get Kovy!!!

Keep crying retards

[mingDIAL14]

KOVALOVERRATED

[dbzfanl]

@mingDIAL14 Kovalwhiff.

[Pacebeats]

he deffenitly made up for it with the run they went on

[SoFluffy17]

he mad it up later the next night with a one knee top shelf slap shot

[Eskolol]

Haha, Kovalchoke (see what I did there) could not score a shootout goal even if his life depended on it. :P

[Jlvids]

He's a grown man with an entire family to provide for, how can he be blamed for wanting to secure a comfortable future for his family? Anyone dissing him for his contract would have done the same exact thing.

BTW

He's also an unbelievable hockey player

[gsx185]

KOVALSUCKS

[Ruinedbad]

Come on guys stop making fun of kovalchuk...not his fault the goalie is a Jedi

[Layneismyhero1]

@thebobsmithers fuck you. You aren't him you have no idea if he has heart or not I have seen him miss a shot that could've tied the game and right afterwards the other team went down the ice and scored he gets so frustrated and after he scores he's one of the happiest people I've ever seen if kovy doesn't have heart no one in the NHL has heart

[devilsholic]

watch?v=xbkulP5qGgg

[DevilsFan973]

rofl he missed this and then scored the OT game winner the next night. GF idiots.

[SN1ZL3R]

Kovy is a beast!! Always in top ten for goals accept this year, one bad move and u think he is bad!?!? He has an amazing shot and sick hands. Look wen he was at atlanta only him and another guy could get over 30 goals amd still made the playoffs

[mouschio]

@SN1ZL3R whos not making the playoffs with an extremely solid team? He got his money and he sucked this year. $100 million has to buy consistency and leadership. None of which this dufus has.

[SuperPimpassnigga]

hes still a crazy player. people have their bad days

[WarriorKing8]

I would like to see all the people who talk shit make it to the NHL and score as many goals as Kovalchuk

[TheBobsmithers]

@WarriorKing8 noone said they are better than ilya. however, take a look at this overpayed superstars stats and then at his paycheck and try to justify it without making lame arguements like you made. No player deserves that much money. With the way he is playing now, that contract is even more disgusting. Players like kovalchuk wont ever lead a team to the cup. All about the money, no heart

[dws5300]

@WarriorKing8 pay me $100,000,000 and ill give a better shootout attempt than that

[WarriorKing8]

@dws5300 ok but will you score as many goals as he has?? nope

[TheBobsmithers]

I bet LA is estatic right now that kovalchuk rejected their huge offer like the premadonna he is

[padraiga]

@TheBobsmithers Yes, we are :)

[seano284]

I kinda felt bad

[BetoG34]

100 million to do that? wow.

[DevilsFan973]

I love the fucking morons who believe it's all Kovalchuk's fault. ROFL. You don;t know anything about hockey. The Devils don't have something called a defense, not the offense. Kovalchuk is fucking awesome, keep sucking it you fucking morons. He also scored an OT winner the next game after this. That's all retards.

[stephen2767]

@DevilsFan973 he is last the league in plus minus LOL

[paullucci]

@DevilsFan973 He has 8 goals. That's an offense problem, dude.

[ltloogi]

In Soviet Russia, puck dekes you.

[razorslice17]

LOL. Look at the Devils' big money guy. Kovalchoke hasn't generated any damn offense for the team and I'd like to see how the team is going to pay his huge salary when they finish at the bottom of the league and can't put peoples' asses in the Prudential Center seats. Looks like the Devils are Koval-Fucked for 15 years.

[DzDeadly1]

poor kovalchuuk.. NJ is my team mainly cause of brodeur..but kovalchuk just doesnt belong there. He's having a terrible season with them and no doubt hes gonna leave as soon as he can. Brodeur just isnt doin good either, soon time for him to call it quits before he fucks his record

[zaaaaak17]

Ilya is the greatest goal scorer in the National hocke league but this season he have had a bad start

[Byks82]

Everyone. I have to say something. Last night, I was our team's third shooter. I had to score to tie it. Well, what you saw Mr. Kovalchuk do, I did. I'm ashamed and just had to tell someone. Thanks for listening.

[scottyohok]

And I expect all u little fickers that are writing this kid off allready to keep that attitude if something clicks with this guy and his team and they start rockin it.

[scottyohok]

Every ones a fickin critic eh. The complexities of his performance is much deeper then all your arm chair analysis'. Keep it simple and fact based like, why is everyone so uppity about this epic fail, would you expect more from somebody that's -17 regardless of pay? There's nothing shocking about this. Do the math the numbers add up..... Now is it funny? I cannot contain my laughter. Ha.

[godrune3]

kovalchoke

[GoalieTributesHD]

i bet this helped his case with that argument he had with his coach

[NYK2O]

i i was there i would have died from LMAO.

[cornboy111]

Mr. $100,000,000 is on pace for SEVENTEEN whole goals this season.

[Din0might7]

Kovalchuk and the Devils are looking more and more like a bad fit.

[vanfar15]

More like KovalCHOKE!!! GO BLUES!!!

[scottsky24]

Priceless !!!!!!

[owensp001]

ahhahahahhahahhahaha thats what they paid 220 million for

[sabreforever556]

Haha, gota love this as a sabres fan!!

[MegaCanadianCowboy]

EPIC FAIL

[theinsider21]

FAIL!

[PookeoResurrected1]

Wait a minute, Lou Lamorello wasted 100 million bucks for this piece of shit? Jesus christ he should just go back to Atlanta

[sprsnc20]

@PookeoResurrected1 That's assuming that we even WANT him back, which we don't. If he walked the streets of Atlanta, he'd get destroyed for walking out on us. Even without that, he's still the most overrated player in the league because he doesn't play defense at all.

GO THRASHERS!!!!

[andyB136]

I used to like Ilya Kovalchuk....Then my balls dropped.

[Gay4Ray]

Kovalchuk was product of the Thrashers system. That system was GIVE the puck to Kovalchuk. Kovalchuk is only good when he is used as a one man team.

[nackteh]

Yea one mistake and now he sucks yea it was a big screw up but so what let it go no ones perfect we make mistakes that's just the way it is

[PookeoResurrected1]

@nackteh it's not just this mistake, but Kovalchuk was supposed to be the "next big thing" in New Jersey, and people were hyping about how he was going to be a goalscorer and all that, yet he gets 100 million dollars in 16 years and scoring 4 goals is just sad if you get paid that much, it's like a waste of money.

[Thomasbguitar]

You only wish your comment was as good as obcene commentor's!

[divehater]

Is there an animated .gif of this fail floating around out there?

[ElBarto3131]

@divehater

yeah I'll send you a link

[divehater]

@ElBarto3131 Got it. Thanks.

[SonnyA89]

Hey you faggots, stop making fun of Lolya Kovalsuck. He's an elite player who will win the Art Ross/Maurice Richard this year and will bring NJ the cup!!!

[stewardo]

@SonnyA89 Have you looked at the standings since the start of the year? I suggest you do.

[SonnyA89]

@stewardo I was being sarcastic you idiot. lmfao.

[razorslice17]

xD are you kidding? The Devils went through tons of shit to get him his 100 million dollar contract and he isn't even producing any offense.

[pauly2421]

KOVALCHOKE

[scotty88hh]

lol everyone stop stealing my word, i coined kovalchoke.

[mingDIAL14]

@scotty88hh I dont see your patent...KOVALCHOKE

[scotty88hh]

@mingDIAL14 lol first to post it good enough for me.

[LongLiveOx]

As a Devils fan, I'm used to them not having any offense, the problem is, now they have no defense, either, lol.

[AulunaRaie]

I think someone for the Sabres was working a hockey version of the trick dollar bill: the trick hockey puck! (that's what it looks like to me...)

[ThEeNiGmA909]

WTF WAS THAT!!! What a waste of cap space haaaa

[iiRtRx1319]

FAIL

[razorslice17]

Wow. The Devil's put all their money into this guy and he isn't generating any offense whatsoever XD

[dojOdRiFTeR]

@razorslice17 wrong coaching system wud be gd at vancouver but he is over priced srry ilya but crosby and ovie r the brest players

[steveO112]

like how the goalie is like uhhhh ok, that was easy enough

[obscenecommenter]

It's okay, honey, I'm sure it happens to lots of guys -- we can just cuddle

[AulunaRaie]

@obscenecommenter *stands up an applauds* That was beautiful, wish I'd thought of that line...

[mwebb999]

Half a million views in 4 days, that has to be a record!

[TheChickenSquirrel]

i would skate around and flip everyone off in the stands if that happened to me

[davethephoneguy]

if that is not a ba ba booey, I don't know what is

[NoTorIousBass]

@EdeWithSpeed Ya I know...I figured that out later

[Try2StopMe1]

Anyone CAN make that mistake. anyone who is making $750,000/year. NOT when kovalchuk is making that much and especially NOT after the bullshit the dev's went through to get him that money. You can't tell me that the dev's higher ups aren't looking at each other now saying "what the fuck have we done?"

the devils are the 2nd worst team in the EC and 3rd worse in NHL. Wonder how they will pay that big salary when they don't make the playoffs and can't put asses in the prudential canter seats?

[Julian24151]

You people are stupid, Kovy makes ONE mistake and you all jump on him saying "OH WASTE OF MONEY, BLAH BLAH BLAH" You guys do know he has won TWO games in overtime for the Devils this year....It was a bad mistake and he made up for it the next game by scoring in overtime. No one is perfect but some people can't get that through their minds...

[TheFlashDelirium]

rofl at all the comments, remember, he's making 100million , he's laughing at all of us no matter of his mistake.

[Italy4ever06]

ok..how about we get some ovechkin wiffs and dives on here considering he does it 10 times a game. Ask any goalie in the NHL and the most feared goal scorer is ilya kovalchuk..so hop off

[jubailblast]

Ok guys calm down. Anyone can do that mistake, 100 mil or not.

[TakeTheWayHome]

@jubailblast No, no they can't. If you are paid 100 mil, it is at the least, an incentive to not do THAT.

[ElBarto3131]

The 100 million dollar play.

[boarder255]

mulligan!

[JennyFarley]

he almost scored

[l3aIIin23]

hahahhah

[jgcanux]

love watching him fail... is it just me. lol its so damn funny bcuz he demanded ovechkin type $

[Haptiic]

the only reason he looked good in atlanta is cuz they were a shit team and he could do whatever he wanted, but in nj they have a system and he doesn't fit.

[xCopps]

edit: enroth looked into his soul and made him miss

[StringsCrusader]

this'll be on failblog in a week.

[wasayin]

he always sucked ass at hockey

[silentghost23]

$100 mil down the drain for a one way player. If Kovy costs NJ Zach Parise, then it would officially become the worst signing in their history

[XirOa]

wow everyone in NJ must hate him now

[dena210]

WTF?!

[RTF666]

Lou Lamariello must be laughing in his grave....oh wait!

[WatchVenusSpa]

The Ziggy Palfy of his time right there folks...

[ThatTuckerKid]

@mrEarlSleek:

A little. But I won't judge :)

[agius123456]

i wish i get paid $100 million to do this epic fail

[fafaflooey]

@agius123456

Kovy is a beast!!!!!!!!!! $100 million well spent dummy.

[mrEarlSleek]

is it weird that i want to cummed inside goalie?

[morepl0x]

in soviet russia, he would have been shot ._.

[amirofthedesert]

@morepl0x I think he thought... In Soviet Russia, goals score you.

[magla3oon]

wheres fail blog when you need it..

[Triixsta2]

lol wow, he wont succed in new jersey, there a defensive team. He should go to a team that needs him .... like the leafs (:

[kingparkerIII]

Devils should have stuck to their system, hard checking, tight system and defensively responsible forwards not this flashy superstar. Should've held on to that money to get shea weber or tyler myers or someone like that in a few years.

[JayKay309]

The Devils organization has to be killing themselves inside right now.

[hiyalk]

should've been on failblog

[knytebyte]

hes pucked now

[BingoRox360]

i can do that, pay me!

[catstuffer]

IT'S A WIFF!!

[plutoly14]

The pressure of the contract allows the choke to be so much better. Lou did something he's never done -> spend $ and now... we're all laughing including Ilya (since he's the one getting paid)

[vrambo]

Hahahahh Kovy got the game winning goal tonight bitchessss

[Fizzspottv]

i think the goalie wasnt pleased either...

[crackerz99]

no deserves 100 million for doing what they love, people should get 100 million for doing what they despise.

[ihearthilary]

@crackerz99 Think about how much he's hated and ridiculed. Constant public humiliation, all day everyday for him and his loved ones. I definitely think that's worth something in the range of 100 mill.

[crackerz99]

@ihearthilary everyone and their mum is ridiculed on a daily basis, by that standard, every loner, and every chick in high school should get 100 mil.

[toutitte123]

i love the reaction of the goaler xD

[Redcaster916]

we'll see who's laughing when the Devils are raising the cup this year :)

[Yargus15]

@Redcaster916 haha ya right in ur dreams ur last in the leauge

[ArmasFM]

When I saw this highlight, I laughed for about 10 straight minutes.

[agapefriend04]

THE DEFINITION of 'WHIFF' - so funnily pathetic!!!!

[racer34aa]

FAIL!!! Lol

[patio12345]

Even the best have cold streaks.

[TheBruinsfan37]

epic fail

[aaronfowlowmusic]

It all doesn't matter anyways. He is still one of the best players in the game right now. You think he will never make a mistake just because he's payed so much money? It just so happened that he made a big mistake at the worst possible time, when all eyes were on him, undivided attention. He will shake this off, go on and score goals and assists, and be a pro, and you don't have to be a fan to recognize the numbers he has produced in the past.

[drdave2468]

looks like brian burkes career one big giant WIFF!

[TheLetsonator]

kovy is still the man.

[TheChico224]

Play hockey much?

[mikemnr1982]

well there is one thing that was good thing about the fail ...............he stayed on his feet lmao

[MogulUzi]

Oh please. Make all the excuses you need. Yes he is human, but for the what he makes and the player he is "supposed" to be, you've learned how to keep the nerves at bay. He blew it, plain and simple.

[jvg785]

The Leafs need more games against the Devils

[fromage122]

waste of money

[TomsMVP]

@fromage122 really after one mistake you say that ? I will say what isn't a waste of money --> a condom your parents didn't use like 12 years ago ....

[fromage122]

@TomsMVP Oh know did i hurt your feelings. Poor baby. Well b/c of him, the devils are in third last place of the league. Furthermore, the NHL fined the devils for $3 million and took away their draft picks for the next two years.

[reffee]

Morons saying he chocked, you obviously have never skated before let alone handled a puck.

[DeathWillBeSwift]

@reffee

why fuck up when you're in the "doghouse"? simple...kovy can't handle the pressure.

[reffee]

@DeathWillBeSwift

Thanks for clarifying my comment.

[nakedwineshow]

BWHAHAHAHA....BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH..GASP...BWH­AHHHAAHAHAHAH.......

[Rawgin18]

thats what 100 mil gets you... NJ is getting the Toronto Curse... welcome to the dark side

[iridetigers]

lol

[devintaz]

I feel bad for him :/

[Ihasahotdoginmypants]

EMBARASSING

[RMT87]

what the puck was that?

[rockee06]

$100 million down more to go....sad to say the great NJ Devil sold their souls to the real devil himself...Kovalchuk.

[dfathere]

fail

[dandia0]

20 people know how to shoot a puck

[iTzMaRtiNeLL]

this is why new jersey signed him for that long.

[THESpoonyLegs]

almost had that

[Ultimaxification]

That's sad

[Arsene1931]

Hey puck! Why so bouncy?

[BaronLoveburned]

That play is not

tolerated in the minors too many times and should never happen in the pro leagues if I was a coach.... but I'm not .

[MegaDandygirl]

Wow what a fail

[CANUCKS101NAZZY19]

Everybody makes mistakes everybody has those days

[dannyho1304]

@CANUCKS101NAZZY19 yeah, i know but this is a big mistake o.o

[blade03030]

fuck man, i was hopin the kings would sign him, but so far im pretty freking glad they didnt. but the seasons young, hes to much of a great player to keep fucking up like this, hell get into his rythm

[WatchVenusSpa]

Kovalchuck is the new Alexi Yashin/Ziggy Palfy. Massive ego, nice moves, no heart.

[ParkC12]

People need to realize hes only in it for the money.

jersey was the worst thing that happened to kovalchuk.

they are and always will be a defensive minded team.

and above all else, kovalchuk isnt a team player

which is why he was best suited in atlanta

[scilabo]

ouch...



[ZubZro]

He did so good for a while now, im just amazed how a late a mistake was lol. hes still an awesome player.

[GrayLeader2184]

Should I be glad the Bruins passed on him?

[wittyunpredictable55]

Come on New Jersey!! COME ON BRODEUR!!!

[ATLsoundmen]

hahahahahaha

[cmaxlefou]

this is the end of the Puck Nuts Walt must be devasted

[cb4allstar2]

$100,000,000.00

[hairesonyourchest]

I can't even imagine how he felt after that...

[ShaaneSC]

i hate kovalchuk.

[hotshot60181]

hes supposed to be a professional...if he completely muffs a shot then he deserves crap :) Good day!
