Butterfly style In ice hockey , the butterfly style refers to a style of goaltending in which the goaltender covers the lower part of the net with his or her leg pads , mainly by dropping down on the knees . Although effective and popular among goaltenders , this style can leave the upper portion of the net more vulnerable than it would otherwise be . The butterfly style derives its name from the resemblance of the spread goal pads to a butterfly ' s wings . The butterfly style is often used to describe the newer profly style of goaltending refined by such luminaries as Patrick Roy and made popular in the early 2000 ' s by such goaltenders as Jean - Sebastien Giguere , Roberto Luongo and Henrik Lundqvist . The profly is a more specialized style collection of the butterfly . The profly requires that the goaltender ' s leg pads fully rotate 90 degrees when the goaltender drops to the ice on his knees . In this position , the goaltender ' s pads provide a full 12 " ( now 11 " for NHL - legal specifications ) of blocking surface above the ice which presents a wall to the shooter . With the legs flared out in a V shape from the knees , this presents excellent coverage on the ice , deflecting pucks to the corner . Extra padding above the knee , referred to as thigh rise , allows the space between the knees to be closed as the top of the pads meet . This is another attribute of profly goaltenders that is not shared with the older butterfly style . Butterfly goaltenders may land on any of the facings , inside corners , or knee wings and lifts , if so equipped . Profly goaltenders tend to only land on the knee wing and lifts . Another specialization of the profly is when recovering to the skates , fully upright , to reposition for a rebound or second shot . Rather than picking up the leg closest to the puck , the leg furthest away from the puck is raised , and then pushes the puck - side leg toward the puck . At this point , the goaltender may roll back onto the puck - side skate blade and face the shooter in the familiar ready stance . There are a number of other recent innovations such as the V - H with which profly style goaltenders identify . Glenn Hall was one of the first goaltenders to pioneer the use of the butterfly style , while other contemporaries , such as Terry Sawchuk and Jacques Plante , often used the stand - up style . Plante actually cautioned against its use except under certain types of screened shots . However , Vladislav Tretiak ' s outstanding performance at the Summit Series , and Patrick Roy ' s success with it in the NHL , helped to popularize the butterfly style . The butterfly style can now be considered to be the most favored goaltending style in the modern NHL . Pioneers of the profly include Canadian coaches François Allaire and Benoit Allaire , and equipment designer Michel Lefebvre of Koho and RBK fame . Patrick Roy worked with the Allaire brothers and used Lefebvres equipment in the late 1980s .

Swindon Wildcats Swindon Wildcats are an ice hockey team ; they were originally formed with this name in 1986 as a council - operated venture before being privatised in the early 90s . History . Changes in ownership led to a name change for the 1996 / 97 season ( Swindon IceLords ) . Subsequent owners in a short period of time saw several different clubs play out of the Swindon rink , including Swindon Chill ( 1998 - 2000 ) , Swindon Phoenix ( 2000 - 2001 ) and Swindon Lynx ( 2001 - 2004 ) . Former player Steve Nell , referee Mark Thompson , and encumbent volunteers secured the operation of the team in 2004 , immediately reverting the club to their original name much to the delight of the resurgent fan - base . In the 2007 / 08 season , the Wildcats came 7th in the league , meaning they advanced into the Playoffs . Unfortunately , they failed to advance to the Finals weekend in Coventry , coming third in their group . Their star forward , Joel Petkoff , chose not to re - sign at seasons end , looking to advance his career in Europe , signing for EC Peiting of the German Oberliga . For the 2008 / 09 season , Swindon introduced a new logo and kit , which were prodominantly red in colour . The club owners cited the reason for this change being that now the team will be associated with Swindon Town FC and the Swindon Robins Speedway Club , whose team colours are also red . After high hopes at the start of the year , the Wildcats finished 8th in the league , good enough only to secure the final playoff place and a date with the league champion Peterborough Phantoms in the quarter - finals , losing on aggregate over 2 games to eliminate them from the playoffs , with the Phantoms advancing to the EPL Playoff Finals Weekend in Coventry , eventually becoming Playoff Champions with a 5 - 4 win over the Milton Keynes Lightning . One reason for Swindon ' s apparent underachievement in the 08 / 09 campaign was the mid - season coaching change with Swindon - born Ryan Aldridge taking over from Peter Russell , which forced Aldridge to work with a team that he hadn ' t created himself . Things seem optimistic for the team ' s 2009 / 2010 season now Aldridge has the chance to compile his own squad . He has already made an impact , announcing the signing of 6 ft 4 " , Czech born defender Jan Krajicek , widely regarded as one of the best defenders in the EPL . In addition to its men ' s side the Wildcats also field a Swindon Wildcats ( ENL ) as developmental team .
