wow you make everything sound so easy sven.
though, you know sometimes in games the puck is on the wall and bounces onto someones stick and 2 people end up carrying the puck up the wall? i've seen it end up on the side of the pool and everyone cracking up laughing.
that doesn't happen in serious games i guess. but thats the thing, if it was legal we would be able to experiment with it in games without it being a useless waste of time... you can't quite see in that stupidly pixelated clip but the last couple of things at the end is swimming towards the wall, turning, popping the puck onto the stick and carrying it over the hips and then swimming off. now if it were legal that WOULD be useful, and it only took 20 mins bumming round to be able to do it relatively consistently in one session. something like that could quite conceivably fit into a real game.
