Hockey has always been a sport of speed and grace mixed with grit and a certain amount of violence. From the frozen lakes and rivers of Canadian winters to nationally televised games played at high-tech arenas before 20,000 fans, ice hockey has come a long way. Though the rules and equipment have changed through the sport’s 100+ year history, the spirit of the game remains the same.
The history of hockey holds more than just changing rules and regulations. A host of colorful characters, bizarre traditions, and strange events mark hockey’s timeline. Few sports can top an octopus on the ice, a team traveling by dog sled, or a championship trophy getting drop kicked into a canal.
This lesson is the basics of hockey. In this lesson we will cover a brief history of hockey, the positions on the ice, and the more details about the game.
