Abstract
A goalie hockey stick including a shaft, a paddle and a blade which are all rigidly attached wherein the longitudinal axis of the shaft is not parallel to the longitudinal shaft of the paddle. The angle between the longitudinal axis of the shaft and and the longitudinal axis of the blade allows the goalie to more easily handle the puck, allows excessive rotation of the goalie'"'"'s wrist to be decreased, allows the hockey goalie stick to be less susceptible to breakage and allows the stick to prevent pucks from passing between it and the playing surface when oriented horizontally along the playing surface, without bending or reshaping the shaft.
