Acronym for “Premature ‘Tendy Yank

A premature tendy yank occurs in ice hockey when one team is down a goal or more in the last few minutes of the game, pulls the goaltender sooner than traditionally expected. “Yanking” the goaltender with 5 minutes left when you are down two goals is considered too early and usually results in an empty-net goal to pad the stats.
