Hockey From A to Z
Because I'm a newbie, I don't know anything about hockey or the following terms. Hopefully this compilation helps out others that are learning hockey like me.
"#" 2-Man Advantage: Another name for a NJ Devil's Threeway.
"B" Butterfly: Something that a goalie shouldn't do because it's old, let me see that Tootsie Roll.
"C" Crosscheck: When a ref calls a penalty, the coach's opportunity to ask questions to overturn the penalty
"D" Dump & Chase: When a player doesn't trust his 1 on 1 moves and doesn't feel like playing offense he will pass the puck to nobody, and not score.
"E" Empty Net: What other team's goalies look like when playing the Caps
"F" Forechecking: That thing girls like that you are supposed to do before actual checking.
"G" Garbage Goal: If a fan throws garbage on the ice, you have 1 minute to get it past a goaltender for a 1/2 point.

"J" Jagr: A player that takes your money and then goes to sleep

"Q" Quick Whistle: When the ref blows a whistle before a goalie even tries to cover up the puck because he was paid money.
"R" Rebound: When you stop liking a goalie after a bad game, and immediately begin to like the backup.
"S" Sasha Hat Trick: When you don't care, care, and are indifferent all in the same hockey game. (Or a Goal, an Assist, and an offensive zone penalty)
