About Ice Hockey
Anyone who has stood at the glass of a cold rink knows the sound first, a puck cracking off the boards. The game grew up on frozen ponds in Canada, and the NHL's Original Six (Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Montreal, New York and Toronto) carried it into living rooms for decades. It's still the fastest team sport played on skates, and it doesn't slow down for anybody.
