Although I am a goalie, I like the idea of the non-goalie version of this prompt better. So lets say I block a shot during overtime or some other short-handed chance, and there's nothing but daylight after the puck ricochets off my pad. I quickly take off, trying to build momentum in my many pounds of equipment. After all, this game has gone on long enough and clearly someone needs to be the one who ends it. Behind me the defender tries to stop but collapses, clearly unable to keep up with my impressive speed. As I make my way towards center ice, my head is filled of thoughts of how I will score and this will be a clip played on highlight reals for generations. Then, suddenly, a whistle. I stop and turn around, furious that this unelected official would dare to stop my brilliance. He makes the sign for tripping and I am irate. "I didn't touch him!" I yelled, skating over to the referee. He shrugs his shoulders. "Well its either that or I stop the play for taking the puck over center ice as the goalkeeper." I pause, then nod and skate back to the net.
