In hockey, a floater is a player who won't go into the corners to fight for the puck. Instead, he'll just circle around in the slot waiting for his hard-working teammates to set him up, where he'll inevitably score and take all the glory.
The opposite of a floater is a grinder.
This term was popularized by Don Cherry on his Coaches Corner segment on Hockey Night In Canada.

"That Gelinas, he's no floater. Look at him battle in the corner for the puck."
"The Sens never win any puck battles because they have too many floaters."
