Hockey Legends: a free online word search

Hockey legends word search, free and printable, for anyone who still argues about the Great One, Bobby Orr and a goalie in a mask.

About Hockey Legends

Wayne Gretzky rewrote the scoring records in the 1980s, and most of them still look out of reach. Before him, Gordie Howe played so long that fans watched him skate against their own sons, and Bobby Orr changed what a defenseman was allowed to do. Goalies earned their place too, from Terry Sawchuk's shutout totals to Jacques Plante, who made the mask a part of the job. Somebody's father in nearly every hockey town will tell you his guy was the best who ever laced them up.

How to play

  1. 1
    Find a word.Tap its first letter, then tap along to its last. The trail fills in and finishes itself when it spells a word. Or press the first letter and drag.
  2. 2
    Words run in straight lines.Across and down, and on the harder difficulties diagonally and backwards.
  3. 3
    It marks itself.Each word you find takes on its own soft color on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.The level you pick sets those directions and how much the word list helps, never the grid size. Tap the A buttons at the top to enlarge the letters, or pinch the grid.
