I don't mind going to games in person but I can't watch it on TV for some reason.

i have never watched a game since the US beat the Russians, now that was fun to watch. Just never have tried to get into the game dynamics.

I watch if the stars are in the playoffs. It is a lot more exciting than soccer

I've gotta say I really enjoy it. Fast paced, big hits, hard-work. I mean its not football but I sure enjoy it in the offseason.

Uhm yes. 3/4 of the game is spent playing keep away, and you have more flops in one game than Manu Ginobli's career combined

I guess I must love it if I work with off ice officals with the Amarillo Gorillas of the Central Hockey League. But Hockey is my Second Sport. Football of course is my first sport and baseball is my third & basketball is my last sport.

1. Football High School
2. Hockey Pro & Amarillo Gorillas
3. Baseball High School & Pro
4. Basketball High School & College

NOTE: I will watch Pro Football & College Football only during Bowl Season & Playoffs.

I will watch Pro Basketball only if Mavricks &/or Spurs &/or Rockets are in the playoffs

It is a very dynamic athletic sport. The speed these guys get and the game as it is played is great. Now the NHL has messed things up with their rules etc but the game is still good. My biggest gripe is the amount of garbage a goalie wears. IMHO, he need thigh pads chin guards, chest plate and qb shoulder pads plus his stick, glove and face guard. I am talking about QB type pads, Not Tackle size equipment like they have now. Make them play the game not their equipment.

They don't want players dieing. Plus there would be a lot more scoring. Ever seen it when a player has to take over guarding the goal?

Yes, that is what I want. A person making a play not a 37 footwide thigh pad.

That would be impossible. Players are way to good of sharpshooters for anyone that isn't superman with superfast reactions to stop the puck

Watched the Ice Bats a couple of time live and it was great. But watching on TV is not alot of fun. It's like soccer to me if you score less than 3 points in any sport I don't like to watch it.

the problem with Hockey on TV is that they attempt to follow the puck which is hard to do so it appears that a person could go into siezures from watching... live you see alot of the action away from the puck and the hits are better...
