Ice Hockey

     Ice hockey is the most popular sports in areas that are sufficiently cold for natural reliable seasonal ice cover, such as Canada, the Czech Republic, Latvia, the Nordic countries (especially Finland and Sweden), United States, Russia, Slovakia, and Switzerland.It is the most popular form of hockey played on ice, in which skaters use sticks to direct a puck into the opposing team's goal. It is a fast-paced physical sport.It is an "offside" game, meaning that forward passes are allowed, unlike in Soccer. Special fact of this sport is that at the professional level in North America fights are unofficially condoned.
