Favorite current player is Peter Forsberg.  I know this is a easy choice, but when you have the best hockey player on the planet on your team, it's kinda hard not to like him.\n\nForsberg is a force and is very talented.\n\nAs for current and the past- I have to go with Ron Hextall.  I was too young for the Cups of Barber, Parent and Clarkey.  Hextall was a great goalie with a huge mean streak.  Gotta love 'em!

Ice hockey\nFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia\nJump to: navigation, search\nFor the NES video game of the same title, see Ice Hockey (video game).\nIce hockey, referred to simply as "hockey" in Canada and the United States, is a team sport played on ice. It is one of the world's fastest sports, with players on skates capable of going high speeds on natural or artificial ice surfaces. The most prominent ice hockey nations are Canada, Czech Republic, Finland, Russia, Slovakia, Sweden and the United States. While there are 64 total members of the International Ice Hockey Federation, those seven nations have dominated ice hockey. Of the sixty medals awarded in men's competition at the Olympic level from 1920 on, only six did not go to one of those countries (or a former entity thereof, such as Czechoslovakia or the Soviet Union) and only one such medal was awarded above bronze. [1]\n\nIce hockey's worldwide popularity is concentrated primarily in locales cold enough for natural, long-term seasonal ice cover. It is one of the four major North American professional sports, represented by the National Hockey League (NHL) at the highest level. It is the official national winter sport of Canada, where the game enjoys immense popularity. Six of the thirty NHL franchises are based in Canada, but Canadians currently outnumber Americans in the league by a ratio of almost three to one, and about thirty percent of the league's players are non-North Americans. The sport's popularily in the US is centralized in certain regions, notably the Northeast, the Upper Midwest, and Alaska.\n\nContents [hide]\n1 History \n1.1 Foundation of the modern game \n1.2 The Professional Era \n2 Equipment \n3 Game \n4 Penalties \n5 Tactics \n6 Periods and overtime \n7 Women's ice hockey \n8 Sledge hockey \n8.1 Sport description \n8.2 History of sledge hockey \n9 International competition \n10 Hockey in popular culture \n11 Attendance Records \n12 Terminology \n12.1 Statistics \n12.2 Personnel \n12.3 Rink \n12.4 Penalties \n12.5 Shot types \n12.6 Game play/random \n12.7 Equipment \n13 See also \n14 External links \n15 Notes \n \n\n\n[edit]\nHistory\n \nDutch burghers playing a game that looks much like ice hockey. \nDutch burghers playing a game that looks much like ice hockey.Games between teams hitting an object with curved sticks have been played throughout the world since prehistoric times. The word "hockey" has been used since the 16th century, but its etymology is uncertain. It may derive from the Old French word hoquet, shepherd's crook, but it may also derive from the Middle Dutch word hokkie which is the diminutive of hok, meaning literally shack or doghouse, but which in popular use meant goal. Many of these games were developed for fields, though where conditions allowed, they were also played on icy conditions , as shown in 16th-century Dutch paintings where a number of townsfolk play a hockey-like game on a frozen canal\n\nEuropean immigrants brought various versions of hockey-like games to North America, such as the Scottish sport of shinty, and the closely-related Irish sport of hurling. Where necessary these seem to have been adapted for icy conditions; for example, a colonial Williamsburg newspaper records hockey being played in a snow storm in Virginia. Both English- and French-speaking Canadians played hockey on frozen rivers, lakes, and ponds using cheese cutters strapped to their boots, and early paintings show hockey being played in Nova Scotia. There are claims that ice hockey was invented in Windsor, Nova Scotia and named after an individual, as in 'Colonel Hockey's game'[2]. Proponents of this theory point out that the surname Hockey exists in the district surrounding Windsor, though this is an unlikely coincidence. Author Thomas Chandler Haliburton wrote of boys from King's College School in Windsor playing "hurley on the ice" when he was a student there around
