Awesome!

By the way I was watching ice hockey a while ago, when a goal was scored the commentator went 'he scores, upstairs!'. Any idea what upstairs means?

In an ice hockey context. Obvz.

Upstairs might mean in the roof/upper half of the net. So a keeper might make a save with his hands 'upstairs', and with his feet/stick 'downstairs'?

Ah that makes sense actually, good thinking. Just did a google search and there weren't that many results, but one that I did find was:

'Mangos scores upstairs where Grannie keeps the cookies'

Say whaaaaa... :-|

Yeah. Upstairs just means upper part of the goal.
