Our plant produces about 30% left to 70% right for forward sticks. However, almost all goalies play left, no matter which-handed they are. Keep in mind that in forward positions right-handed people often play left, and vice versa, so the stick they use is not always an indication of which hand they write with. Only a very few goalies play right...probably fewer than 10% in professional hockey.

There are a lot of left-handed players in the world including internationals who play with regulation hockey sticks.

For example, the Indian dribble uses the left hand to turn the sticks face from left to right when dribbling. When controling the ball you will find that much of the work is done by the left hand at the top of the stick, and the right hand is really just for support and stabilising the stick.
