A unique code of ethics shared amongst hockey players that is widely unknown to others; 4. The biggest underground hockey fraternity in the world. Example: Lovin' this gongshow, our game is going to be crazy Saturday but not nearly as crazy as the afterparty!
Many others refer to gongshow in its original meaning which is a hockey game that has gotten out of control with ridiculous fights, goals or other crazy events. Example: Did you see that gongshow last night? There was a bench-clearing brawl and this puck bunny got thrown out for flashing a guy in the penalty box! A puck bunny is often defined as an attractive lady who hangs out at ice rinks trying to get players' attention for their own "benefit" rather than coming to watch the hockey game.
They often love the sport of hockey and love the players even more. Example: Dude, after I scored that natural hatty I took that puck bunny back to the party and got crazy!
A bender is widely-used term for players who are terrible at skating and look as if their skates aren't tied tight enough because their ankles bend when they stand on them.
No offense to Holmstrom as he is great at doing what he does and has been for the better part of a decade, but he is a terrible skater and looks like he needs his mom to tie his skates tighter for him. Example: That bender looks like his ankles are going to snap under his own weight, he needs to get off the ice before I dangle him.
A dangler is a player who can just dangle the opposition. A dangle is much like a deke but more than just a head fake, the player must embarrass the opposing player by moving the puck in and around the opposing player with his stick—almost "dangling" the puck in front of him. Example: Oh man, Datsyuk is such a dangler! Did you see him dangle Turco last night on that breakaway! A toe drag is a fairly new move which consists of holding the puck out on a players forehand to tempt the defenseman and when the D makes a move for the puck, the offensive player then uses the "toe" of his stick to pull the puck backwards and then towards him to walk around the D.
Example: That toe drag was so sick, you made the defenseman look like a bender. The term 'duster' is referring to a player who sits on the bench and collects dust, only played when a team is up by a lot of goals just so he can get some playing time.
Often, the duster is used to separate the offense from the defense when sitting on the bench.
