Would I be a spoilsport if I stipulated that hockey is a sport played on grass (or what passes for grass) by men or women who wear normal sports attire, whereas ice hockey is a testosterone laden stick fight on ice between whimps in ridiculously protective outfits, where a puck plays a marginal role?

The women's hockey team is also much nicer to look at than the beardie guys of icehockey as well.

You don't say. There's this ex-player, whose Portuguese name I shall not mention, who is responsible, through her appearance, for more twisted necks than are caused in all fights in all ice hockey games in the whole of spacetime.

Indeed, that's her. Although that's not what she used to wear when chasing a hockey ball.

Need I explain that I like hockey?
