When one thinks of Estonia, I’m not entirely sure what one would think of first. It probably wouldn’t be hockey, though. But maybe one day we’ll be talking about the great Olev Kork, Estonian puck-juggling master.
According to eliteprospects.com, Kork is an 18-year-old playing for EK Kalev-Valk Tartu in the Estonian league. He also represented Estonia at the Division II A World Under-18 Championship. But it’s what he’s doing off the ice that will drop your jaw.
Kork filmed a video of some of his off-ice stick and puck tricks, which includes some puck juggling while riding a bicycle, stick flips, spins and some other impressive tricks.
To think some of us can barely walk and chew gum at the same time.
I’d like to see this kid go head-to-head with the likes for Detroit Red Wings forward Tomas Jurco (a puck juggling extraordinaire himself) and Columbus Blue Jackets prospect Sonny Milano (whose pre-draft stick and puck tricks went viral) in a puck-juggling competition. Maybe that can be one of the sideshows at the World Cup of Hockey in 2016.
