That is exactly what i was gonna say. Left hand shot is pretty much the "right" hand of hockey. I can imagine an American parent never being exposed to the sport before, standing at the stick rack at Dicks Sporting goods, picking the right stick since their kid is right handed. It would be an easy assumption to make.
