Yeah that is so true, just for the hell of it I wanted to see how many goals I could get using 20 min periods, and I got something like over 85 goals.
Basically you would just have to deke and you would score every time. (Deking back then was just skate to the left to draw the goalie to the left side then as you are moving to your right take the shot, it would go in 80% of the time).
