Ice hockey is played on a smooth ice skating rink that is 200 feet long by
85 feet wide (NHL rinks) or 100 feet wide (Olympic rinks). Players
wear ice hockey skates plus an array of protective gear including a
helmet with a visor, a throat protector, and a protective cup, plus
gloves, shoulder pads, elbow pads, knee pads, and shin pads. They
use their hockey sticks to maneuver a hard black rubber hockey puck around
the rink, striving to shoot it into the opposing team's goal. Each
team's goaltender wears goaltender skates plus a helmet with mask, a
throat protector, a chest pad, a protective cup, arm pads, and leg pads,
plus a blocking pad for the stick hand and a catch glove for the free hand.
