Can't find a video of it, but it sticks out in my head.

Winning faceoffs in hockey can be important, and if you try cheating, the ref will kick you out and make your teammate take the faceoff instead. Presumably your teammate isn't as good as you at faceoffs. Henrik and Daniel Sedin are creepy, psychic, ginger twins on the Canucks. One of them gets kicked out of the faceoff circle, and they do a little skating around, as the original guy comes back to the dot to take the faceoff.

Just the fact that it was done so seamlessly and it worked. I love it.

Here they are admitting to it on (Canadian) national TV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehuJUPpKhXs&t=279s
