Answer 3

Sabrefan did you have to remind me? We have those at the only ice rink here within two hours. As a goalie I don't have much say in their presence and have gotten used to them, but the very first time I saw them before one of my games I was taken back

PS at the Victoria Ice Skating Rink in Montreal 1875 (where Chelios got first star as the best rover of his day) they were using a lacrosse ball, but it bounced around too much so someone sliced off the ends to make it flat. Hence the puck as we know it.

edit Toskala is looking4 that rubber ball on the 5th bounce .. Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?
