text: This is why only White Trash watch hockey... Cause they are simple minded and are only entertained when puck is in net. 
  
  I played triple A hockey as a kid. I can tell you with authority, there is no strategy in hockey. There are only two ways to play. Defence, as in clogging centre ice.... and fast...which = dump and chase.
  
  Soccer is sophisticated. That's what Soccer is the #1 sport. Hockey is a fringe sport. Even Rugby has more countries playing than hockey.  Heck, Ping Pong has better TV ratings than hockey.
  
  In soccer, everything....even the nice passing is a beauty to watch. Only thing worth watching in hockey are fights and goals. Everything else in between is boring. Again...I play hockey. So I know. (playing is more fun than watching)
