Avec humour et finesse, Shar Levine et Leslie Johnstone abordent l'aspect scientifique du hockey et sugg?rent de nombreuses exp?riences que les jeunes pourront r?aliser.

Ever wonder why hockey players tape their sticks? Or why they freeze pucks before a game? (they do, you know) With their usual fun and wonderment, Shar Levine and Leslie Johnstone explain the science behind hockey. Each spread features a fun experiment budding hockey players can do on their own, on or off the ice

Some topics include: why sticks break; how pucks are made; why pucks slide; eye-hand coordination; the shape of hockey sticks (curves, etc.); the science of ice.
