What’s that you say? You don’t care about hockey? Okay, that’s cool. You’re gonna wanna spend 60 seconds watching this anyway.

His name is Tomas Hertl, and he’s only 19. It’s like an opening scene to a summer blockbuster when we need to meet the main character in grand, no, barely believable fashion. So something a-mazing happens.

That is poetry on ice.

Hockey? What is this hockey of which you speak?
I’m not a hockey fan per se, but this was incredible. What an athlete.
Wow. That was amazing! I watched it and then called my brother over to watch it. He agreed, amazing! And I’m just happy hockey is back! Thanks for posting this!
Always nice to have fellow hockey admirers around. Tx!
Now here’s the thing Mr. Clay Morgan, is that’s how excited I feel when I see some of the crazy cool manuevers my nephews do in soccer. They just do them with their feet – feet they’re also using to run with. Cause, you know, they can’t use their hands much less sticks. 🙂
But yes, that was completely awesome.
Now when have I EVER said anything negative about soccer? Doesn’t sound like me at all.
