I love hockey.  The Stanley Cup finals were very exciting this year!
That's cool!  There are several types of hockey as well?  Bandy and field hockey are also popular sports.
Yes there are.  Do you know more about field hockey?  I am really only familiar with the ice hockey variety
I do know a little bit.  It dates back to the Middle Ages, and originated in England, Scotland, France, and the Netherlands.  It's amazing that it was so popular back then!
I would probably be better at field hockey.  I am not very coordinated when it comes to ice skating
It would certainly be easier to keep your footing, since it's played on grass, turf, or synthetic fields.
I really enjoy watching hockey on TV or in person.  Some only watch it for the fights though
I'll admit that I enjoy the fights the most.  It's interesting that the origin of "hockey" comes from the Middle French word "hoquet", which is a shepherd's stave.
That is interesting.  I would not have guessed that at all
Some believe that hockey was first mentioned in 1363.  King Edward III issued a proclamation banning several games, and some translations suggest hockey was amongst them.
