Since Nico Hischier (24) and Jack Hughes (22) returned from injuries, the New Jersey Devils have won eight of their last 10 games and moved within one point of the playoff spots. In the 6-3 victory in Columbus, Wallis’ captain recorded a goal and an assist to reach 300 points after 398 NHL games. Star striker Hughes scores a hat-trick.
Akira Schmid (23) creates a special scene for his father Andreas, who takes part in the annual ‘Dads Trip’. When a penalty is called against the Blue Jackets, he runs out of the gate and is replaced by a sixth outfielder. But just as he reaches the bench, the puck lands at his feet. The Emmentaler goalkeeper becomes a striker and plays on goal. For this he receives a time penalty of 2 minutes.
Since 1967, goalies have been prohibited from passing the puck beyond the red line. Gary Smith (79), who was nicknamed ‘Suitcase’ because he played for seven different NHL organizations in his career, is responsible for this rule change.
Smith always had the (unfulfilled) dream of scoring a goal. And so in a game with the Toronto Maple Leafs against the Montreal Canadiens, he rushed forward with the puck. As he moved up to the opponent’s third spot, he was suddenly stopped by a check from JC Tremblay. The league then decided to adjust the rule to protect goaltenders.
Roy once dribbled past Gretzky
However, that didn’t stop star goalkeeper Patrick Roy from dribbling past Wayne Gretzky and crossing the red line in 1997. Like Schmid, he received a penalty.
Schmid was actually lucky that he only got one penalty. Because when he passed the puck in front of the bench, there were already seven Devils on the ice.
A similar scene occurred in the National League in the last play-offs, when Lugano goalkeeper Mikko Koskinen played the disc beyond the red line during a penalty against Servette (2:1 nV).
