Hockey prompt

Trick plays huh? That's an interesting question. I think they definitely have a place in the game, I just think they don't really work with the current style of game that's played in the National Hockey League. I think the biggest factors in limiting the amount of trick plays that happen/are successful would be the speed of the game and the space available to pull these moves off. Hockey today is played with such speed, the time required to pull these moves off just isn't there. The separation needed from your opponents isn't available. And also, I don't think the North American ice surface is helpful either, being much smaller than its European counterpart. This would also stop these trick plays from happening. Overall, I just don't think hockey is the sport that really allows trick plays. These moves take precision and calculating and there is too much going on, and so much unpredictability, that it makes it very tough.
