Because there's a difference between people who can fool around with the puck. And those who can actually play the game. I'd rather see people who can actually play at an NHL level.
All these people saying this is useless. You ever see a player tip in a puck from the point? This is why. Insane hand-eye coordination drills. You can see video of Crosby doing similar stuff on the 'net. We've already seen people scoop up and shovel the puck into the net in live games.
For those thinking "why isn't Zac Bell in the NHL omg" just look at the height difference and the fact that Zac seems to have no legs in those warmies. My man has world class skill and has for sure found his niche, but let's remember he is a professional entertainer, and just a good but not professional hockey player.
Bellzy.....makin a name in the game when a HOF'er is in awe of your puck control. I wanna see you teach tricks to Gretzky and Mario! Oh man, can you even imagine a player with their hockey skill and IQ combined with yours????? You know, with the importance in today's NHL of points won in shootouts, You should get a job as the shootout co-ordinator for some franchise.
Zac is super good at puck tricks. A lot of this is not useful for game situations but would be good for young players to practice and play around with just to develop puck handling skills. Lindros would be unreal in today’s NHL. Imagine a mix of Malkin and Byfuglien. Oh and he’s the toughest guy in the league. This is not a knock on the league today; the game is better than ever. It’s a league that would let players like Lindros, Kariya, Forsberg really show what they could do.
All of these tricks are worth about one goal a year if lucky and lots of falls on your keister when the defender plasters you. Good on Colby, but I’d take Eric’s size, strength and speed over gimmick moves any day.
Bouncing the puck off of the stick blade and then scoring? Lindros did that in real NHL games, which is much more impressive than a demo like this. Just saying.
So I used to play years ago as a teenager. I played mostly defense. These skills are insane!!! However game time situation, a guy tries to come through my slot concentrating so much on the puck, my shoulder would drive right into his chest and... you're assed out buddy.✌️
There's no rule against juggling the puck down the ice. It's not high-sticking. Moreover, tipping the puck in MID-AIR is legal, and the game would the FUBAR is tipping became illegal. I'd love to see someone juggle the puck down the ice and score a goal. To see the NHL scramble. Not sure if there is a "keep the puck on the ice" rule or not.
Lindros is like "Let's get this over with"
He seemed to be enjoying himself at the end tho
Guy was having a blast 🙌
Big E, thanks for all youve done with charities and such in the toronto area.
Dude the curve on your stick is a boomerang…Eric in todays hockey environment would be unstoppable.
Has Zac ever been invited to perform his tricks at the NHL All-Star game? That would be awesome!
Faxs, that needs to happen
Barber as well

@@tyrous1743 But it would work BECAUSE he can't play at an NHL level. It would still entertain. Which. The All-Star Game kind of doesn't for a lot.
@@tyrous1743 he actually knew how to but due to an injury he can't anymore lol
Zac has such a great energy to him
ok now can we get this but with zac bell and current nhlers
Imagine him and McDavid 🤯🤯🤯
So cool!!! Armstrong and Lindros 👍👍
colby looks like he's been hitting the gabagool
😂😂 lookin like Mark Zuckerbergs thicc cousin
Honey: may you get me some ice, baby?
Eric Lindros: puts helmet on

Lindros prob thinks back 20 years and just wants to bury him 😂
Wow does Lindros ever look like Norm Macdonald!
Kids amazing
Lindros is a big dude.
Protect that dome Eric
Lindros has pretty good shape there..
if you seen scott stevens or shanahan.. they look like gramps
Arent they older than lindros??
Lindros is going grey, and it makes me feel old af lmao
I'd like to see him and Scott Stevens, like Rocky and Ivan Drago.
Literally Lindros is the coolest dude ever

love it! is lindros norm macdonald if he played hockey?
is that curve legal?
The Hands!
Lindros is a big guy but he always had soft hands with the puck.
I used to tape my blade like Lindros as a kid
Can Zac hit someone.in another dimension like the big.e though lol
I only remember Lindros getting hit into another dimension and that career ending 😂
It would be great to see a Boston Globe trotters like hockey team...
I was hoping big E would take the body.
Zac bell is the best!
Eric has no clue how to look fake excited about this.

ahahahh nicee
let’s be honest, we’d rather see a 1v1 of Pavel Barber vs Zac Bell rather than McDavid vs MacKinnon
Idk because if the nhlers are just goofing they may show off lol
Tell him come take Marner spot...
fer da kids
Impressive stuff but absolutely useless with regards to playing hockey
its not meant for hockey games
It’s impressive but really stupid
@@benkenobi_ it only impression children and houseleague caliber players. lindros was paid to be here.
I hate it when they're creative! ruclips.net/video/ZdOq9LBylBI/видео.html
