Reflexes and reaction time fuel the brain and helps NHL goalies stop pucks.

During a game, every movement of the puck follows the laws of physics and illustrates the concepts of force, impulse and collisions.

NHL players depend on three important physics concepts: work, energy and power on their slapshot.

Scientists and ice technicians explain the science and math that goes into building and maintaining this surface through the long NHL season.

Being a top goalie in the NHL requires the key averages and statistics of goaltending.

These pinpoint passes, requiring both magnitude and direction, are perfect examples of velocity vectors.

Geometry is used in hockey in every pass and shot the athletes make.

Kinematics, the branch of classical mechanics, helps describe a player's movement across the ice by defining his position, velocity and acceleration.

NHL players display a great mix of speed a strength which are great examples of Newton's Three Laws of Motion.
