I laughed after watching NBC aire several hockey games on the tele. It was expected to draw crowds given the hype, but what I did not expect was HOW SMALL THE RINK IS in relation to a football field.
? it is NOT impossible, in fact easily accomplished = just expand the rink to 100yds., and widen the rink to the 53.3 yards of a standard football field's dimensions length and width.
Qs:
PREFACE: Basically this question is not for the purist, who's puritanical mindset could not fathom such creativity. For those who NOTICED the massive discrepancy in size aired on NBC's televised hockey games-on-a-football-field:
? WHO THINKS THE SPORT COULD, (repeat COULD), be tweaked in the aforementioned manner, by keeping the rules the same, but have the rink expanded as described above, essentially constraining the proportions correctly within the rink's designed intent?
"Think outside 'the box'!" ...and have some FUN with this question! Don't take it so seriously! You never know, you might come up with some good ideas for hockey played on a 100yd rink! Increased players? Two goalies!
? either keep the rules. Or...
? completely change the rules or number of players to suit the expanded rink.
? remember = think OUTSIDE the proverbial box. Afterall, football was even tweaked for indoor Arena Football.
