Hit the Ice Hamlet

Hockey is a great game that is like no other. It incorporates so many different elements the individually seen in other sports. Skill, speed, smarts, teamwork, strength, quickness, agility, and teamwork. As you might be able to tell, I believe that teamwork is most important. A single player can not win games like in golf, or baseball, or even basketball. It takes a group of 5 guys who are constantly communicating and sticking up for one another to achieve victory.

Hockey also incorporates hitting which is only seen elsewhere in football and rugby. Football and rugby are the main focal points in those sports, while in hockey it is not. In hockey, hitting is just one element that can change the way a game goes. A shift in momentum can be created by a hit. A scoring chance can be created by a hit.

In hockey, every Daniel Sedin needs a Henrik Sedin ( ). In other words, every Hamlet needs a Heratio. Each person in the league needs someone they can count on that can help them succeed, help get them out of trouble, and get their back when they needed it the most, just like Heratio does for Hamlet.
