Disappearing hockey stick

Yeah I watched it on CBC, on camera it sure does disappear, although as you know from being a goalie we are taught to look at the puck, so the colour or the stick should not really matter.

However since there is a rulling on goalie stick tape colouring then its possible this should be addressed also.

Agreed. I think it could be an advantage in certain situations though.

Its Wisniewski on the canadians that has the white stick.
I wonder if this will catch on?

I don't think they League will let it slide for too long... Some one is going to have a whine about it

Theres rules against the color of a goalies tape? I never knew that.

I thought goalies couldnt have black knobs? Could very well be wrong though.

In the NHL they can't. Plus, you wouldn't want to have a black knob.. do you really want to take the chance at having your knob mistaken for a puck when it crosses the line? God knows the guys in Toronto still won't make the right call even on video review.

Bingo Syn...it's not just black either though. Take a look at Quick's tape job. It's taped in purple tape until the very end where it has a white circle to keep from being mistaken as a puck as well. Others do it as well with their coloured tape.
