From my understanding the puck needs to clear the big white board to
win.  The piece of plywood is relatively thin, BUT there is a 2x4 that
surrounds the opening.  The puck has to clear that as well.  So instead
of clearing the 1 inch piece of plywood, it has to clear the 2x4 as
well.  In an opening that BARELY fits a puck through, I think it is
ridiculous that it has to slide approximately 3 inches through this
board to win.  Just getting it to lie flat enough to go into the
opening is a feat in itself.  Give him the truck!!
