I thought they resembled hockey playbooks.

Reminds me of Hockey

No kidding. Like a circular puck style.

Looks like mainly they played around on the ice.

The first thing that came to mind was the hockey puck.

Being a hockey player, I definitely want to see what this would/does look like.

Yeah, my mind immediately jumped to a hockey team having just scored a goal.

Huh, I have always referred to them as "pucks".

jeremy_wiebe | karma 418 | avg karma 2.53 · | 2014-12-11 21:31:40+00:00

If they aren't hockey related, at least they could have gone all out with hockey branding and terminology!

You mean the old one button hockey pucks? God those were so uncomfortable.

I had similar thoughts, but, um, skate where the puck is headed?

I read this. I then re-read it because I was thinking that maybe I just missed something or didn't understand the analogy since I am not a hockey fan (pucks are for ice-hockey, right?).

I then re-read it once more. I am now convinced that this doesn't mean anything. It's a vomit of words. Someone please help explain this to me.

I absolutely lost it at the "hockey gear" annotation. Would have been hilarious.

His mention of the glowing hockey puck made me realize that I haven't seen a glowing puck for awhile. Granted, it may be that I haven't watched hockey as much as I did when I was a kid, but I certainly didn't see it last year when I watched some games.

When I did see the glowing puck it made me feel like I was watching NBA Jam on Ice.

That game is how I got into ice hockey.

Yes, but the NHL stuff wasn’t explained whatsoever. I had no idea what was going on there.

A lot of these suits seem to think they're putting together a hockey team.

jessaustin | karma 25176 | avg karma 1.77 · | 2014-03-24 21:21:00

They'll be prepared in case a hockey game breaks out.

NHL 2000. Those animations look exactly like the awkward crowds from NHL 2000.

Does anyone know whether this has been done with hockey?
