I have been a hockey fan for years in spite of living in Oz since 1982. My credentials are having been in attendance when the Leafs last won the Stanley Cup. Maybe this year! I am researching the origin terms used to describe goalies - regular & full right - but have been unable to find any information. There is an impressive list of full right goalies: https://thehockeywriters.com/who-were-the-best-full-right-goalies-in-nhl-history/ but nowhere can I find why the terminology developed. Any help will be appreciated. cheers, jks435
