It is the
only professional sport I’ve found interesting to watch on television. It’s
amazing in real life. My parents met at a game. All of the players are
exceptionally good looking. Everyone out there is a talented athlete which is
not guaranteed in other major sports e.g. some defensemen in football are just
big. That’s it. They don’t have much athletic prowess beyond sheer size and
mild sprinting ability. Hockey players are fit, fast, and can take a hit
(unlike soccer where you touch certain players and they fall out like a 7 year
old).
Hockey is
also popular internationally. Scandinavia, Russia, Czech Republic, Canada, and
a many other nations love hockey. Even Margot Robbie, an Australian, is
obsessed. It’s a sport that’s meant a lot to me in the last few years when I
haven’t had much else to look forward to. Hockey is definitely one of my
favorite things.
