Standing up on your skates is one thing, but what happens when you put four retired NHL players on horses and give them the keys to the Coliseum? Will they be able to stay on their steed? Find out at Horse Hockey!
Some new players were added to the roster and they trained hard! Freshly sharpened from the Battle of the Blades and just as competitive as ever, Maple Leaf's enforcer Darcy Tucker threw it down with several goals in the game!

Horse Hockey is just the most innovative combination of an equestrian event with our national sport, you see. Combine the racing speeds and grace of your favourite Rock'em Sock'em sport and throw in an agricultural twist: that's Horse Hockey!

They say that practice makes perfect. We needed to recruit two world-class polo players to show our hockey players the reins. 26 year old horses Killer and Thunder live up to their names by giving our stars a run for their money.

This year, former NHL hockey legends Darryl Sittler and Mark Napier were back on in Ricoh Coliseum. Players signed autographs from excited fans before the game. Stay tuned to see what NHL stick-handlers will do with a mallet in 2012!
Darcy Tucker and Mark Napier have a pre-game chat in the stables.
