The slowness of hockey

I went to a WHA game over the holidays--Brandon Wheat Kings versus the Edmonton Oil Kings. It took me a while to get used to the slowness of it all.

I was also amazed by all the hype that surrounds the sport--even at that level: flashing lights, an indoor fireworks display, and tickets that cost almost $30 apiece (rather pricey, considering the league's amateur status).

To be honest, I wish I'd gone to an NLL game instead. Edmonton Rush has a lot of Salmonbellies on its roster.
