October Files: The Importance of Stick on Puck Play in Hockey
There are many aspects that make a player great, one of which is their stick play. A good stick will break up a play, create turnovers and enable your team to shift momentum in the game. On the other hand, a bad stick can lead to high quality scoring chances for your opposition or cause stick infractions that steal away key moments of a game.
