I agree. It doesn't have to be made by an offensive play. Could be defensive as well. Could be a series of touches so to speak by several players on one particular play that lead to the win. I agree with what you're saying. But to win a game you have to have 1 more score than your opposition. It's that one play that makes the diffence.
Now if you have a game where offensive, defensive, goalie and every one else plays fantastic on both teams. The game though ends in a tie. Then what you have is a great game to watch and talk about. But you don't have a winner. You don't have that one play that made the difference.
