 About Hockey

Ice hockey, game between two teams, each usually having six
players, who wear skates and compete on an ice rink. The object is
to propel a vulcanized rubber disk, the puck, past a goal line and
into a net guarded by a goaltender, or goalie. With its speed and its
frequent physical contact, ice hockey has become one of the most
popular of international sports. The game is an Olympic sport, and
worldwide there are more than a million registered players
performing regularly in leagues. It is perhaps Canada’s most
popular game.
