    goals and assists don't happen enough for it to be interesting.

    Like I said guys, it's a game of finesse, the beauty of a slap shot flying across the ice at over a 100 mph. A well executed breakaway when its one on one, player against a goalie with lightning fast reflexes! Or a killer assist set up perfectly. Not to mention a brilliant glove save or deflection. There's a lot go'in on in a hockey game, if you actually know the sport and pay attention.

    Have to love a team sport that prides itself on literally punching each other in the face and how many teeth you don't have left. Oh wait, no, you don't.

    I bet on hockey if there is nothing else. Usually take a puckline and lose it all.

    How the hell is hockey not a sport? Playoff hockey is the 2nd best part of the sports season.

    Hockey is great, though I'm not a huge fan of it for fantasy.

    Negotiations taking as long as they did f*cked the NHL up. Hockey still, though not my favorite, is definitely a sport.

    its a sport, but fantasy hockey isn't a game of skill, it's a game of luck.

    Having played it for a large part of my life, I can assure you it is a sport. Also, Hockey in the US is only really big in two regions (East Coast and Northern Midwest). Also, no clue why people complain about hockey being difficult to watch. Maybe its because I played, but "following the puck" is not hard to do. Hockey is the best team sport IMO.

    Major problem with the NHL right now is that they have so many teams. They need to cut back a few in order to boost the talent pool.

    Also, it is awesome being a lifelong Hawks fan right now. I waited decades for the team to become relevant. Only problem now is that it is super hard to get seats. Of course, lacking boobs is a factor in this.
