NES Blades of Steel goaltending stunt

The rules of the stunt are simple. Put 100% effort into making saves with the goaltender until he gets the puck or a player of his team gets the puck by accident. Once one of those things happen, take the puck out of the zone across the red line, and wait for the other team to come back with it for more saves.

The puck can be shot across the red line or taken across. If taken across, the player simply lets go of the controls until the other team takes it. If shot across, the player can let the other team get it, or chase it down to prevent icing, but once the puck is controlled, then let go of controls. The only part that defense plays in the game is preventing bad turnovers right in front of the net so that the goalie has a fair chance at all saves. Some additional time can be wasted off the clock by chasing the puck in for icing, but it isn't much and it's a fair trade since icing disadvantages the goalie by bringing everybody back in front of the net for more deflection opportunities against him.

With that method, the objective is to play the whole game on only saves, get the score tied at 0-0 in the 3rd, and win the game on the shootout.

No tricks. No game genie.

At least one goal that should have went in wasn't counted because of poor puck movement detection of the game.

ahhhh... man..... just you wait. Just.... you..... wait...... someday.... I don't know when...... you're gonna look back at this..... and this is gonna be funny. It's gonna make the MOST sense in the world, and this is gonna be the most classic comment of all time. The BEST ideas in the world are the ones that make NO sense when they're first introduced. History has taught us that one many a time, and it is no different here. Relish it.
