I was a goalie but whenever I played forward I loved playing the left side as a right handed shot. I guess it's all what you feel more comfortable doing but I always felt better protecting the puck coming down my off-wing.
The Russians seem to do it lots, the guy we picked 22nd overall, Emile Poirier, does it too.
