Your teammate passes, and now the puck is in your control, your hands skillfully wielding your stick as you weave and muscle your way past your opponents. Just ahead, the goal awaits. The goalie moves into place, positioning himself ideally to block your shot. With one well-aimed swing, you send the puck flying.
