Hockey fights, I find are the best part of hockey, it adds a lot of entertainment to the game. I found a video that I just had t put on, this video shows a player from the Dallas Stars and the Carolina Hurricanes. Everyone thought this fight would be fare and amazing, on the contrary though. This fight way a blow out, the player from the Dallas, Steve Downy knocks out the Carolina player (who’s name I could not find). It was amazing! The player from the Carolina Hurricane tried to grab them twice, each time Steve Downy slapped his hand away. The third time, he threw a punch, Steve backed up to dodge it, then threw a left hook and knocked the player from the Carolina Hurricanes straight out! The fight was caused by a big hit from Steve Downy in Dallas’s end, which caused a player from the Carolina Hurricanes, to loose it and go after him. He soon realized that, that was a very bad idea. Steve then skated to the bench after knocking him out, like nothing happened. Hockey fights are always fun, I’ve been in a few of them my self, it feels amazing when you triumph over someone, especially if they’re someone bigger or taller then you. I would recommend however, not to pick a fight.

Coaches

Coaches are extremely important to a team. They are the people that come up with different plays, organise the team’s schedule, games and practices. They are there at every game and practice and do not tolerate laziness from nether a game or a practice. All the coaches are different, some more easier going then others, but all have the same purpose, to win. Coaches are only friendly in house league, any level higher then that, if you slack off, you`re benched or you get yelled at. The dressing room is the worst for players and the most fun for coaches. It all entirely depends on the effort the players give into the game. If they put a good amount of effort, the coach will be pleased, if they put a minimum of effort; the coach will simply tell you what you need to fix for the next game. The worst, is when you play a bad game, that the coaches have to be yelling at you the entire time to pass, shoot or even skate with the puck. Then he unleashes hell on his players. Point of coaches, to make players lives miserable with practices and yelling...good luck to all hockey players.

Hockey divisions

There aren’t a lot of divisions in hockey, but there are still enough to know. There is house league, AE, AA, AAA, junior, OHL and finally the NHL. These categories are very much different, on much different levels then other ones. House league is mostly for kids that just enjoy the sport of hockey, that just play it for fun, don’t really expect to go anywhere. AE is for players that still don’t plan to go anywhere, but that love the competition and a more difficult playing field with contact. AA is for players that look to have a small future in hockey, more experienced and who’ve been playing their entire lives. AA players are much more skilled then a regular player, that practice from time to time and are much smarter with the puck. AAA is pretty much, top of the line players that all they do for a living is hockey, and they practice everyday and are incredibly skilled. Junior is for players who get drafted from AAA and are trying they best to get spotted by someone to get drafted into the NHL. You have to be really good to get into juniors; you have to be pretty much the best at everything. Passing, shooting, reading the play, slap-shot wrist shot etc…Finally, the NHL is for the best of the best, one out of twenty will get in, they don’t just look for good, they look for someone who can score goals, create plays, almost without even trying.
