In the other rules thread Liam posted an Idea that I think has merit.
Playing the puck off the bottom being allowed.
My brother and I have talked about it for a while and it isn't easy. It does not make any sense not to allow moving the puck in the water column as long as the stick rules etc. are not changed.

In our local club game last night a player stuffed my pass,the puck hot up into the air, then "caught" the falling puck on his stick and moved it across his body. This allowed him to change direction away from me very cleanly. An impressive move to say the least. But it is illegal by the current rules.
Rule 14.1.6
Rule 16.3.7

Could the rules be deleted or reworded? IS there any interest in this change?

B-
