I'm a big hockey fan!  I especially like  ice hockey
ice hockey is a contact sport right?
Usually, especially in the NHL where it's very fast-paced and physical! 
What does NHL stand for?
National Hockey League - it's a professional league with teams from the U.S. and Canada - and hockey is teh most popular in Canada
Oh ok it makes sense that Canada would love hockey!
They sure do! It's the official national winter sport in Canada!  My favorite team is the Toronto Maple Leafs!
How many players are on a team?
