Interesting page for those fans curious about the physiological, chemical,
and mechanical forces that make the game happen.
 
Leading physicists, chemists and the San Jose Sharks take you inside the
game. The science of hockey is at the Exploratorium
www.exploratorium.edu/hockey. Learn about reaction time, high tech materials
used in gear, the mechanics of skating, and the energy generated by a
collision, and more. You can calculate collisions on page 2 of checking.
Compare that with the collision simulation at www.violentcontact.net
