Trick plays aren't used much in the NHL because if you do one and it succeeds sure it's a cool highlight reel but if it fails you look like an ass for not doing the boring high percentage play. I'm order for a trick play to be viable, it has to be both likely to succeed and have little to no other options, the real skill (which few players have) is being able to identify those moments in real time. The most recent Zegras Michigan goal was an impressive highlight reel play but honestly I don't think it was a smart idea. I can't deny Zegras' talent but with Sonny standing in the way he was lucky it was successful. Maybe to promote more trick plays you can add something to the all-star game, instead of the shootout competition you can have a trick play competition to see who can do the coolest moves.
