Pulled Goalie

The core mechanic that defines PUCK GOLD. Goalies may be pulled at any time, multiple times per game. This strategic decision is normalized and highlighted visually in both broadcast and UI.

"PUCK GOLD exists because it had to pull its goalie repeatedly to be born."

Scoring

Every goal equals 1 point. No multipliers. No power plays. Pure ice, pure competition.
