goalie fight

n. From ice hockey. An incongruous event that really should not be happening, shows utter incoordination, poor planning, and a lack of proper attire, and yet is hypnotically entertaining.

So I hear the mayor of Chicago went up against the gun-control folks. How did that go?

Total goalie fight.

goaliefight

n. An ice hockey event so clumsily comicsl and so outrageous that all sports media will show it and thereby increase the fan base of a marginal dying sport. (Except in Latvia and some parts of Canada). Also used in the sense of a metaphor.

That senate trial was a real goaliefight, eh? We don’t have politics like that in Latvia.
