jukel123 8,793 Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 Can you imagine the shock horror, need for an inquiry, endless moralising if that happened in a sporting event in the UK? Over there its meh, big deal, boys will be boys, it's what the crowd want to see. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Welsh_red 4,751 Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 I love ice hockey , what I found hard watching it was all the ad breaks all the time . It turned a 60 minute match into a almost 3 hour event on the NHL app I had The fighting is a great part of it bit I just love the speed and skill of it , sometimes it's just beautifull Any chance I get to post this video I always do 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Plenty 40+ players in the amateurs over here , just they've probably been playing 10 years or more . I go ice skating 2 or 3 times a week for fun with the kids and we normally watch at least one amateur a week it definitely looks good craic to play. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
