Notice that after his goal he seemed to exude a bit more confidence out there.  He just looked like he had a bit of a monkey lifted off his shoulders today...A game like today where he was really down on himself and then felt the euphoria of netting the game winner can do wonders for his mental state and help mold him into the player everyone was touting him to be over last summer... You MUST lose to learn to win.  You learn by mistakes and only get better.  If people weren't meant to make mistakes, God would not have created erasers.  You may go through your first couple of pencils quickly, but with every mistake erased and life's lessons learned, eventually the eraser last longer and longer and longer...until finally you have the experience and the confidence to use a pen!

Why did you have to bring up Sid.  The discussion was about Val.  Does everything have to be about Sid?  If Sid is "the greatest player in the world" why has he never even been a finalist for the Selke?  You would think that the "greatest player in the world" would also win the Selke every year.  DATS is the greatest.

Whoa, easy man....without going back through the pages of this thread someone had said that if that was Sid that scored that goal it would been replayed on NBC X amount of times already...which is what I said in the first line of my post of the vids, which you obviously chose to ignore. Instead all you saw was someone mention Sidney and decided to try to incite a war over it. You are talking to one of the biggest Sid haters in the world, which is why I chose to show Val scoring two goals that are rarely equaled by Sid.  In which the point of my post was to say how much Val deserves some similar TV time to Sid because of todays goal, yet he won't get it.

So, if you would have read the post instead of just trying to flame me since I mentioned Sidney, you would've gotten that. I never said he was the greatest player of all time either...

So, back to the topic of the game and the goal, it was a great goal by Val that deserves to be shown over and over again on NBC and TSN.

Did Hossa get a penalty for that?

Well, I see that someone earlier mentioned that if it were a certain other player who made that shot, it would be non-stop playing on NBC and TSN all day and night...Lead me to start looking around for some super goals by "him."

First off, I found Val's on Youtube:

Also here is Val's from 2008:

Sid has had some amazing goals and even though I have looked and looked, I haven't found ANY that are much better if at all than these two by Val.  Sure Sid has some, and they are great highlights, but that is expected of him, Val's goals are equally amazing. $6M amazing, nah!

Not saying Val is as good as Sid, but he deserves some well deserved NATIONAL press time for this goal...it was every bit as equally amazing as any of Sids I could find...

Don't these players ever learn? When they complain about not getting calls in the hopes that they are "politicking for more calls to be made" they end up getting more calls against them and even less against the opposing team...It's as certain as death and taxes... Thank you Porky, even though we are struggling on the PP, it'll be nice to have your team only have 4 guys out there for about 16 mins next game...

I couldn't believe it when even Edzo admitted that he "might" have embellished a bit for that call.
