It's too hard to really pull off trick plays in the game of hockey. In football, everyone has a mark and a job. Linemen try to burst through one person, hoping the ball is near. Safeties and backs are sometimes playing zone coverage waiting on the ball, but there's a good chance they're playing man-to-man coverage.

In the game of hockey, everyone is focused on the puck. I know you don't watch the quick when you're hitting someone, but it's the general focus of most players. It's also the entire focus of the goalie. It's hard to hide the puck, which is one of the only ways that trick plays work. The lacrosse goal is more about control than a trick and banking on an over-committing goalie.

It'd be cool to spice up the game, but I think it's great the way it is and you can't do much anyways. Not within the real of realism anyways.
