Message: [QUOTE="RuffRuff, post: 5344332, member: 1268"] But the difference is that there are few goals - so when I see one bounce off a skate, it’s like really? It’s a game of deflection and blocked vision. There are so few goals that feel clean and artistic when I watch. Disagree with soccer - teams control in midfield and run sets. There is paced alternating possession. You can watch a team set up. In hockey it’s just madness. Too many large men in a small arena on ice with large sticks trying to squeeze a tiny object past a goalie that consumes most of the net. It’s obviously easier to score in basketball but shooting 35 to 45% that makes the difference. Easily the best sport to watch on TV and live in my book, with easily the most impressive athletes.
