Two players successfully executed the lacrosse move on the same night, a first in league history.
Joining the elite list of NHLers who've pulled off this thrilling maneuver—Andrei Svechnikov, Filip Forsberg, Zegras, Kent Johnson, and Bedard—these players showcased their skill and added excitement to the game.
However, the future of the lacrosse move might be uncertain, with former NHLer Jay Rosehill sharing his prediction on X (formerly known as Twitter). Rosehill voiced his belief that the league might ban the lacrosse move, going as far as stating,
"They will ban the Michigan in the next 2 years. #markmywords."
While the move undeniably brings attention and excitement to the sport, the possibility of a ban raises questions about the league's stance on such creative plays. Fans are left hoping that the NHL will continue to embrace the lacrosse move, allowing its brightest stars to showcase their creativity with the puck.
