The game's the same, but how do you deal with that
chain?
Stomp it with your skate when it's on the way into your
net? Sure. Try to wrap it around the opponent's skates to
trip him? There's an idea. You'd have to avoid it while
traveling with it, that would be challenging.
Since it would
fly around wildly and unpredictably every
time the puck was hit the players would have to jump to
avoid it which would add something to the game.
Fairly easy to do:
1- Get a hockey puck.
2- Attach a chain to it.
3- Get two hockey teams to try it out.
I'm guessing that being competitive sports guys they'd be
up to checking out the challenge. Might become a thing.
Call it the chain of death.
If that's too brutal you could use a rope I guess.
Easier to see the puck on TV too.

sp: hockey... but don't let that stop you. |

LIke a 3D mid '90s Fox network 'comet puck' effect, but with more mayhem and destruction. |

Real Men would use chainsaw chain, thus producing
a Blood Rink over the course of the game. |

As you can see, it was correctly spelled in the rest of
the post. Not a misspelling, simply missed the key in
my haste. |

Why stop with one puck? A manriki careening along
the ice or towards the goalie's neck would make for
an exciting game... |
|
|
"Careening" is when you turn a ship on its side to give its bottom
a good scrub. |
|
|
I suppose the careering manriki might careen the goalkeeper in a
manner of speaking, if he's not fast on his feet. |
|
|
//the careering manriki might careen the goalkeeper//
Surely "the careering manriki might careen the
mankini-wearing goalkeeper" - ? |
|
|
I speak North American, where careening is the
appropriate word choice, despite what some tribe on
a funny little island thinks. |
|
|
You know, a strong ribbon might be just as
destructive as far as tangling in skates and hockey
sticks. |
|
|
Someting about the chain though. More dangerous=
better. |

Link's broken Big. At least for me. |
