It's crazy to me that hockey plays that many games lol that's so brutal, at least baseball players are just sitting around eating sunflower seeds for half their games

its a miracle some players manage the whole season sans injury, tho they usually just play hurt lol

Yea... and every time I see like highlight videos or something like that, the stadiums are basically half empty

Well that's bc they play 162 games lol they only have to sell enough tickets to cover workers and its profitable, not like they have to rent the stadium

averaging between 15 to 15 minutes a game too (the latter being a stay at home defensemen)

Yup... and then something like the world cup is played in 2 weeks, while the FIFA world cup takes 4 weeks... with 7 games for the two teams who get to the final, while all participating teams in the Hockey one play at least 7 games.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

play each team twice is already pretty good
