The best thing that could happen to hockey, for fans, is to get involved. Whether it be ball/DEK, inline, ice, whatever. Challenging the pros and officials to be perfect without experiencing the sport ourselves is a bit unfair. Ya, I know, there are those of us who have played or officiated a bit. We appreciate the skill and stamina of the lowest levels of the pros and what it might take to reach the top. What I'm saying is; if you haven't tried it, go ahead, you'll like it.
