Zdeno Chara is a legend and one of the most legendary defensemen of all time, and the defenseman with the most games played. His unmatched physique and most of all, reach, made him a nightmare for every forward in the league. One of Chara’s signature features was his unusually long stick, that only he could handle. But what happens when a bunch of amateurs try to use his stick? Hilariousness ensues.
Zdeno Chara has always been the complete package when it comes to defending. He’s always been at the right place at the right time and also could pop up with some important goals or assists. But the one thing that’s made Chara stand out during his career is his incredible physic. He’s 6-foot-9 tall and weighs in just under 250 lbs, makins him one of the biggest NHLers ever.
Trying Zdeno Chara’s stick
Now that’s some reach and some long stick. Sticks with lengths that match Zdeno Chara’s height aren’t easy to come by, but one Beer League team got the opportunity to try it out, and it went precisely as everyone would’ve thought. Not very good.
Just skating with the stick is difficult for the Beer Leaguers. In the video, with almost 2 million views on Youtube, some guys also try some dekes with the stick. And some even go for the slapshot. And they all fail. This is actually hilarious. Just watch this:
