Nexen Science of Hockey

Feel what it is like to be a superstar at centre ice, or try to outrun our blazing fast hockey player.

Learn what a concussion is and get a "puck's-eye" view of the ice.  Fight brain-waves against brain-waves with your opponent in our intriguing Mindball game.  Find out how skates work and the differences between a slap shot and a wrist shot.  Plus, get a handle on some tricky hockey trigonometry with our air hockey game.

Trigonometry, Physics, Biology and Psychology -- it is science all Canadians love, hockey style.
