Why don't we have a name for when a player scores 2 goals in one game ?

[Mr Nogatco]

Maybe not goals, but I hereby decree that a player getting 2 assists in a game has performed a "Hutson."

The Lane Hutson Hat Trick is when you go minus one, with two assists, and three new threads created about it

 

[TheBeard]

If it's on Georgiev it's called a "slow night"

 

[Nathaniel]

There is already (so and so has a pair of goals tonight.) Or so and so has a double

 

[ItWasJustified]

In hockey and soccer , when a player gets 3 goals it's called a hattrick

In soccer , when a player scores 2 goals it's called a brace.

So there you have it. When a player scores 2 goals , it's called a brace. Let's make it stick.

3 goals is a hattrick.
4 goals is a pantstrick.

2 goals can be a socktrick.

Throw a sock on the ice!

 

[GoldenSeal]

Why not

3 goals is a hattrick.
4 goals is a pantstrick.

2 goals can be a socktrick.

Throw a sock on the ice!

As long as six goals is a touchdown and you have to scream 'TOUCHDOWN!!'

Jesus.

"Dueling braces" sounds like something you'd see on prom night.

...nope, it's a +1 (he is a plus player 5-on-5)...

 

[Chainshot]

Why's everyone in a hurry? Can't we just call it "two goals in a game"?

Do we not also say "a pair of goals".

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Do we not also say "a pair of goals".

I had to check, but apparently we do. Good catch!

[Brookbank]

Nobody in soccer calls it a brace either.

Wrong. It is as common as hattrick in English football

Question to the original question. Why haven't any of the admins locked this thread?

You officially don't need to worry about this.

 

[Patrik26]

You officially don't need to worry about this.

If a thread here worries me, I need to see a shrink.

[Lt Dan]

What about four?

That's a 10 gallon hat trick

 

[Suntouchable13]

“Brace” sounds f’n afwul. Hope it never catches on in hockey. We don’t need a name for it. “a pair of goals” is fine.

lol no

Wrong.

I'm not a soccer fan, but isn't it far harder to score two goals in soccer than it is in hockey? Which would make sense why they have a term for it in soccer.

I don't know about that....I think there are far fewer goal scorers in soccer...tends to be certain guys that score the goals based on their position, moreso than in hockey. For example, I'm guessing the greatest goal scorers in soccer have a higher goal per game rate than hockey players.

 

[Toby91ca]

It's a deuce.

As in "Ovi dropped a deuce tonight."

Maybe it's just me, but if you told me "Ovi dropped a deuce" I would have thought he did something different than scoring 2 goals.....

To answer the main question here though....hell no! Let's not come up with a name for it.

 

[Brookbank]

Wrong.

Happened an hour ago. Game isn't even over yet

 

[Oddbob]

Brace sounds idiotic.
