Hockey is a sport that is enjoyed by many players and fans. Because it is most frequently played on ice (professionally anyway), it is often referred to as ice hockey, though there are some variations of the game using a roller rink rather than an ice rink making it possible for those who don?t have the benefit of ice rinks to engage in the game for fun. Hockey that isn?t played on the ice is generally referred to as roller hockey.
Ice hockey is played in a 200 foot by 85 foot rink. Lines are painted on the ice to mark various zones. The red line in the center of the rink marks the middle of the ice so the hockey players can tell how far to shoot. Blue lines are used to mark the three zones of the ice ? the defending zone, the attacking zone and the neutral zone. View the rest of this article
