Zidlicky's 2nd goal was aided when Seabrook broke his stick...Hossa handed off a stick to Seabrook (although this meant Seabs had a Left shot stick, and he is a Right shot)...It being a virtual 5 on 3, with Hossa as a stickless forward.

I have a question for you guys that play with modern sticks (having used wooden ones in my youth, and having messed with Aluminum shaft ones too). Why wouldn't a coach DEMAND that guys on a PK use a sturdier stick (especially a D-Man, on the PK)? These composites seem much more fragile when used on shot blocks.
