    Here is what i'd do on D. gap control --> stick check. there is always incidental contact with the stick, otherwise Dmen would be sitting in the sin bin for the entire season. I would imagine the same is true of a guy trying to dangle in the air. Stick check, play body...profit.

    besides, it takes time to flip a stick to the puck on the front or back of the heel. Either way, your killing your flow through the neutral zone if you stop and trying this move. its not practical enough to be something that common, and doesn't seem like it would be hard to defend at all. Way too much skill required, not enough payout that a regular dangle couldn't accomplish...

      No...the goal where he scooped up the puck behind the net, balanced it on his stick and deposited it in a "wrap around" move from the side against BC in the 1998 finals (in the semis, Michigan beat UNH and BC beat Ohio State).

            I think you're thinking of the Mike Legg goal.

            That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

              OK - I was wrrrrrrr... but the reason I brought it up was, as I said before, I thought they had "banned" that type of play. There was a lot of talk about it at the time...did anything ever come of it?

                Yes. That's why Trupp wasn't penalized and the whistle wasn't blown.

                  Lord knows the WCHA refs would never miss an obvious call.
