This guy, Rob Schremp, is a rookie for the Edmonton Oilers and was doing some charity shootout thing and came up with this just nasty attempt at a goal. I guess he grew up in Upstate New York and played lacrosse and hockey but I can see a little lacrosse action in this attempt.

Illegal?

I am not a hockey official but I thought the stick had to stay under the level of the cross bar. The goal by the Michigan player did that but Schremp is way over.

This was a charity shootout so I don't think they were really going by the rules.

Jeesh, michlaxref - do you have to be such a wet blanket? :lol:
I LOVED it, obviously a lot of lax in his background, and it certainly adds an exciting element to his play.
I have to say, his last trick with the golf ball and driver is equally impressive - 250 yds down the middle!

Not trying to be wet blanket. Jus trying to understand what they could do in a game and if they could change the game. Rule is something like shoulders or croos bar. I would love to see this in games.

Mike Legg is the kid from Michigan in the video clip. His goal was the first time I'd ever seen anyone score that way.

And that second one is none other than Sidney Crosby.
