I saw the Women's Olympic Hockey team play the University of Wisconsin a few years ago. I was stunned at the power and speed of the Olympic team, as well as their abilities to shoot and pass. It got to the point where the UW team was cheered if they actually managed to get the puck out of their own defensive end. I can see where they'd give a University men's team a hell of a game.
they weren't playing hockey. they're were playing women's hockey. it's like football and touch football.
