You don’t ever see hockey players taking games off for load management. You can’t force those guys off the ice on game days. NBA players are soft. Still love the league, but they soft. Ain’t no dawgs in this league compared to the NHL.

Hockey players are hard core dedicated athletes who play for the game.

An NHL player had his heart stop and was practically dead for a few seconds on the ice and when he became conscious in the locker room the first thing he asked was when he could go back out on the ice. Hockey players are fucking wild

This may sound weird but As someone who played high level hockey growing up I can say that Playing hockey gives you some sort of adrenaline and high that no other sport compares too. I never really thought about it until now, but i think it has something to do with the speed of the game and the ability to just glide

Plus you don't feel pain as much in the cold.
