The Stinky Glove Launcher is the primary weapon of the Hockey Star. It shoots extremely fast but deals very low damage (1-4 damage depending on the range from the target). Because of its high fire rate, it overheats quickly but has a very high DPS.
An alternate ability of Dummy Shield, the Future Dummy is stronger than the default Dummy Shield, but only one Future Dummy can be placed down at a time. When the Future Dummy is destroyed, it explodes (dealing up to 75 damage to nearby Plants).

Trivia
This variant is one of two hockey-themed All-Star variants, the other being the Goalie Star.
In the first Garden Warfare, his weapon overheats the fastest out of all the All-Star variants because of his weapon's high fire rate.
The ZHL mentioned in his description is a parody of the NHL (National Hockey League).
Prior to Garden Warfare 2, the maximum number of shots he could shoot from his weapon before the weapon overheated was 48. Without the overheat upgrade, he could only shoot a measly 36 shots before the weapon overheated.
He is the only character in the Garden Warfare 2 Christmas promotional picture that is not an ice variant.
He is on the loading screen for the Yeti King Boss Hunt Event, despite not making an appearance there.
He, Rugby Star, and Tennis Star are the only All-Star variants that have hair without the use of customization.
His jersey number may be a reference to the film Christmas Vacation, where the main character Clark Griswold has a hockey jersey with the number 0.
In the community challenge "No Toxic Too Noxious," the vanquishes with this character helped complete the challenge, although he is not a toxic variant.
