Aaltopuck looks like something Disney would sue over. Too close to the mouse.

I think it should be implemented like multi ball in a pinball machine. It is only used at certain times and if you score with the aaltopuck it's worth three goals.

Maybe the Aaltopuck should be introduced on a trial basis at Devils games?

I actually want to see how that thing would behave in a hockey environment. I think it would be an interesting exercise.

I think it would be dangerous as all hell. Guys not expecting a "pass" getting obliterated with open ice hits. Shea Weber slapshots taking off at unpredictable angles and hitting people in the face.

I think it would be brutal. :lol:

That being said I could see it being a useful tool in practicing d-zone coverage. The randomness of the puck could highlight how people aren't being covered.

Imagine the bounces when it is on edge. Lots more friction/snow collection too.

I love the graphic that shows "the evolution of the hockey puck", as if the Aaltopuck is more "evolved" and superior to the standard puck

How the fuck do you shoot it?
the idea of taking a one timer is that you know exactly the surface you contact.

worst idea ever

Well... I think you're joking but in case that isn't the case, you can see Ceci turn away from the shot therefore getting hit in the ear and not full in the mush.

If he's standing in the corner and that thing had been shot at him, guaranteed he doesn't react at all.
