Don't follow hockey at all

Enfuego · Oct 17, 2013

Been watching it a bit lately even though I can't tell you the names of 10 teams or even 5 players but it astonishes me there isn't more scoring.

Fully realize it's tough and these guys play good defense but the action is so fast and so up and down, it would seem you'd see more goals.

Thoughts from the hockey guys?

this might make more sense to ask in the NHL forum bud...

I'm not a soccer fan at all, but I'm curious as to why nothing ever happens at all during a soccer game. Anyone?

Maybe they should go to 4 on 4 instead of 5.

It's really, really hard to do.

I imagine so. These guys seem to be phenomenal athletes.

Because the rest of the world is easily entertained

This is exactly what hockey should do; the excitement would be off the charts.

It would be unsustainable physically for the players to play at the speed OTs are played at now for an entire season.

LOL, you may be right.

Had Carolina, Montreal and Buffalo tonight.

Hockey has a ton of scoring but the 1 goal thing makes it seem much less.

In football you get 3 or 7 and hockey you can never get more then 1.

But 4 goals in hockey can be like 28 points in football.

Maybe it's just me but does line movement/line moves/public %/ect seem to mean even less in hockey?

Yea, and get rid of that goalie guy. Then we would see some scoring.

No but I've been told the action is so much faster in real person.
