Is "quinella" a widely used term to describe Lemieux's 5 goals, 5 different ways?

I am not familiar with this term, and internet searches seem to only link to this page or direct copies of this page in regards to hockey. It is often referred to in gambling, I believe, which seems unrelated. Thank you for any assistance. This is my fist Talk page edit, so I hope I am using the proper techniques to answer this question.

Hello. I am not familiar with this term either. So, I did a quick search, and the only non-Wikipedia copy that mentioned it that I could find was this. I wouldn't consider a quiz a reliable source for information. So, unless we get someone to speak up to this and find a source, I would say we remove it. By the way, you used the proper technique to ask a question on the talk page. And following up on the Hockey WikiProject was also a good move when no one answered here. -- JamesTeterenko 04:40, 19 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Being a hockey fan, I would like to say that I have never heard the term quinella (in realtion to hockey), and would second the movement to get rid of it.--68.45.76.174 01:13, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In a sports book I found that its five goals, scored five different ways and the only person to do this is Mario Lemieux. hope this helps  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.18.10.37 (talk) 16:39, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Game-winning goal misdefined

I'm having trouble wording this in a non-confusing way, but the game being tied is not needed for a GWG, as is currently implied. If a team goes up 2-0 and then gives up the next goal, the second goal (not a go-ahead-goal) is considered the GWG. The GWG is the goal that is 1 higher than the opponents total. In addition, with the implementation of shootouts, the term game-deciding-goal has been used to refer to the player who scores the "GWG" of a shootout (I don't believe it counts in GWG stats, though).--128.205.153.176 19:12, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hockey Net Dimensions

According to NHL Rule 3b:

"The goal posts shall be of approved design and material, extending vertically four feet (4') above the surface of the ice and set six feet (6') apart measured from the inside of the posts. A cross bar of the same material as the goal posts shall extend from the top of one post to the top of the other."

5 hole refers to the puck going between the goalies legs. RiffRaffAK (talk) 19:52, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge into Goal (hockey)

Goal (hockey) is currently a Redirect to this article Goal (ice hockey). Should we move this article to Goal (hockey) and generalize it to cover field hockey also? H Padleckas (talk) 07:54, 12 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Natural Hat Trick Missdefined?

I beleive it should say that it is a Natural Hat Trick when 3 goals are scored in the same period, not 3 goals consecutavlly? Correct me if I'm wrong, because I don't want to edit it if I am... Youngril (talk) 01:01, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
