yeah nicky's right, it would be a sheperd on the part of the player receiving the puck, doesnt matter what the intentions are of the other chasing tackler.

a ref might call it if they see unfair advantage but i very much doubt it, it'd probably just be play on... easiest way for the receiving tackler to take it is to take the puck as it's offered on a plate and let the forward come on, then turn and go to the left in the diagram... then he's turning on both players and i doubt there'd be a sheperd at all.

but realistically of course he'd probably hare away to the right and the space, he'd (she'd) be mad not to... i don't see any opposition drawn there.

this type of move is used very often but hardly ever like this... far more realistic to position the lastman/goalie player facing back towards their own bin like the other two, with the puck at their hips... chasing tackler knocks it off the forwards stick to make the cleanup easier for their mate.
