Our friends from The Great North had the right idea. Take a soccer field, reduce it in size to about 25% of what it was, flood it, freeze it, put skates on the players and give them a hard rubber disc to play with rather than a clumsy ball, and voila!
Hockey!!
Those Canadians knew how to fix a really dull, boring game.
