“This F**king Sent Me”: Twitter Explodes as NHL Esports Commentator Tries Replicating Alexander Ovechkin’s Iconic Goal

Hockey YouTuber and NHL eSports commentator Andrew Telfer, who also goes by Nasher, recently posted a hilarious video on his Twitter. He made a parody, replicating the recent goal by Alexander Ovechkin in the match against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

The Russian NHL star scored a unique goal that almost no goaltender would have expected. In the video, Nasher is seen making the ‘controller disconnect’ meme, which is a nightmare for any competitive gamer. The way Ovechkin stood on the ice rink for around ten seconds waiting to score, was just like his controller getting disconnected in the NHL 23 game.

Hilarious comments were left by the NHL fans

At the beginning of the video, many fans fell for Nasher’s trick. They realized later that he was just trying to make a parody of Ovechkin’s goal. A gamer fan related to this controller disconnection situation saying, “Too accurate lol.”

One Ovi fan recalled how the NHL star has also scored these types of goals before, saying, “Not the first time.”

Another fan pointed out a quote by the Great One, Wayne Gretzky, saying, “This is contrary to the Gretzky quote. Why even bother to skate to where the puck is going to be?”

A full analysis of the goal scored by Ovechkin was given by this fan in the comments, which reads, “Well if you stand at the same spot long enough, you will fade out from defenders vision and get open.”

Here are some more hilarious comments left by the fans –

“Haters will say it’s fake.”

“Meanwhile coach be like – GET IN THE GAME! -75pts.”

“This f**king sent me.”

“Nah bro had me fooled until he said bang I thought it was acc OVI.”

A step closer to the Great One’s record

Russian NHL star Alexander Ovechkin, after scoring this bullet-like goal, is one step closer to Wayne Gretzky’s 894 career goals. With the goal he scored in the recent match against the Pittsburgh Penguins, Ovi now stands at 812 goals.

Currently, Ovechkin has played 1,464 games compared to the Great One’s 1,487. The Great One’s record might be broken by Ovechkin in the upcoming seasons of the NHL, and the Washington Capitals fans are just waiting for the big day.
