Has anyone ever switched stick handedness before? I started playing by skating out, and shot left. Switched to goalie after a few years where I play glove right. Skated out again today, still shooting left, and after all the stickhandling I've been practicing as a glove right goalie, it felt weird. There's no way I could switch to glove left as a goalie, but the weirdness of switching back and forth is making me consider switching to shooting right when I skate out. I'm a left-handed person, so that would put my dominant hand on top.

Never tried shooting right before, though. Is it difficult to make that switch? Anyone ever made the switch before and can tell me what it's like?
