Vancouver wouldn't be a genuine Canadian city without its own hockey team since Canadians are fairly fanatical about the sport. For outsiders, hockey looks more or less like random events on an ice rink, but for those with a trained eye, it is a perfectly choreographed, if violent, event.
Word has it that hockey players are the best conditioned of all professional athletes, and, perhaps the toughest. If you aren't sure about that, take a look at the face of any hockey player who gets an interview. He looks like he came straight from the battlefield.
Hockey season runs from the middle of September to the middle of April, so if you're going to be in town during that time, chances are you can catch a game at GM Place. Games start at 7:00pm.
The regular season runs from October to April with exhibition games in September and playoffs from April to June.
