Ice hockey is probably the sport most familiar to Americans in the Winter Olympics, thanks to the NHL. During the Game, the league takes a break to allow its players to compete on the world stage, which adds star power and name recognition, but also means there will never be another Lake Placid fairy tale. Vancouver 2010 will be the first Winter Olympics ever to play hockey on a narrower, NHL sized rink, as opposed to the international size.
