short-handed 

1) without any seemingly particular effort
2) in unfavorable circumstances

4) hand-over-fist in British English slang

Person a: can Sidney Crosby score short-handed, even after his injury of Jan 2011-Feb 2012?

short-handed 

one of two things:

a) in hockey, a situation where your team is down a man because one your players is in the penalty box

b) a phrase meaning without any particular effort

person 1) Can Sidney Crosby score a short-handed goal after his injury of January 2011?

person 2): IMHO Sidney Crosby will do so not only short-handed, but also blindfolded at the same time.
