OSTRAVA, Czech Republic — In a do-or-die game where one shot might be the difference between gold and bronze, you dish the puck to Nolan Foote.
Foote, 19, has three goals in four games, including two on Team Canada’s tournament-best power play . His snipes have been something to behold. “It’s pretty impressive to watch how small of a window he’s shooting at,” said Avalanche prospect Bowen Byram, who has been setting Foote up for those power play one-timers. “It’s pretty, pretty tight. He gets it away quick and it hits a small area.”Get access to stream TSN’s exclusive coverage, including every game, news and highlights from SportsCentre and more.
Foote even uses a variation of the Ovechkin curve, a wicked toe hook. It’s so severe that he has to aim low because it rises so quickly.The physics in play are incredible. But Foote and his older brother, Cal, played their minor hockey for the Colorado Thunderbirds organization. As dual citizens, they had a choice to make.“I like it on the side I’m on now,” Love said. “It’s better having him bombs away here, instead of on our club team in the Western League - because I’ve seen this shot for a long time. It’s a threat. It’s a weapon.”
