I'm big, I'm a very fast skater but my hands aren't too good. I can protect the puck like the best of them, and I can dish out the hits when I need to, but I don't do it often. I'm a very good goal scorer and playmaker and can play the PP and PK. In the O zone, I play the best when I have the puck and when I do, I try to build the play from behind the net. I'm also extremely talented playing in front of the net, think Tomas Holmstrom.

Who would you liken me to?

You're big,fast,protect the puck well,big hitter,very good goal scorer and playmaker,play the PP and PK,good behind the net and extremely talented in front of the net.

I would say you're a combination of :
Crosby,Ovi,Stamkos,Lucic and Malkin with a little bit of Datsyuk because of your 2-way play.

Aside from your hands and front net shenanigans I'd say this guy...



Big, great jets, great defensive prowess, hits when needed (nothing Brown-like though) and an awesome play maker.

Your girlish need to draw attention to yourself reminds me of Sean Avery.

I came into the thread hoping you had a photo and video of your play so we could determine the answer. I am sure you have some laying around your phone, please post them so we can know which NHL player you are identical to.
