bar down
Puck clangs in
Bar down is hockey slang for a shot that hits the underside of the crossbar and deflects down into the net—one of the most satisfying ways to score.
The puck's downward trajectory after striking the bar confirms it crossed the goal line: He went bar down from the slot.
Sometimes shortened to bardown or bar south.
