Without trying to be a smart-aleck, the answer is: with the other sticks.
You will notice that teams have either on (or near) their bench a rack (or
pile) of spare sticks. There is typically at least one for each player.
Once a player puts the stick in there, it would become exceedingly
difficult to pick out which stick is the one in question. Because while
#19 may have his number on his sticks, we wouldn't know how many of #19's
sticks are in the rack (or pile). I suspect that if the stick had made it
to the bench, they would have simply gone with the unsportsmanlike
conduct minor and the 10-minute misconduct. (Running on the theory, of
course, that running and hiding your stick on the bench is an admission
of guilt.)
See you later,
John
