[snip] > The question is, is such a rule necessary?? Now.. discuss! :-) Absolutely NOT. One bump, and you drop the puck. The last time I looked, hockey was a contact sport. The situation has to be perfect to execute the "DO IT shot" as former WMU player Bill Armstrong calls it. Last year, a local Albany TV sports reporter did a segment on Armstrong and the "DO IT shot". Armstrong outlined the situation that the shot could be attempted and be successful. I believe that Armstrong was the only person before Mike Legg to use the shot in a game (AHL and IHL), and you don't see a lot of AHL and IHL players are not carrying the puck on their sticks. one persons opinion KP HOCKEY-L is for discussion of college ice hockey; send information to [log in to unmask], The College Hockey Information List.
