Aside from the fact that a stick is used to manipulate an object into a goal, which a goalie may or may not be defending, and that they are both called hockey, there are no similarities in the two rulesets.

∙ 10y agoNot exactly. Ice hockey is a version of hockey played on ice. There are several different types of hockey, including Field Hockey, Roller Hockey, and Street Hockey. The basic premise of the game is the same (two teams playing each other, trying to propel a ball or puck in the opponent goal) but each game has different rules.
In North America, "hockey" refers to ice hockey. Elsewhere in the world, "hockey" generally refers to Field Hockey.

∙ 13y agoI'm sorry to say, I'm not sure what English hockey is like, but I can tell you the differences between the NHL and similar leagues (such as the AHL) and international hockey (as is played in the Olympics)
The primary three differences are:
1) An international hockey rink is wider than an NHL or AHL rink.
2) If the puck is "iced" (cleared down the ice from behind half way, to the area behind the net) in international play, it is immediately called when it crosses the line, while in the NHL, the players can race to the puck, if the team that iced it touches it first, the icing is not called.
3) There is a trapezoid behind the net in the NHL. If the goalie handles the puck behind the net, but outside of the trapezoid, there is a 2 minute penalty for delay of game. There is no such trapezoid in international hockey.
These are the main differences between international hockey and the NHL. While this is not a direct answer, if you know whether or not English hockey is played by the same rules as Olympic hockey, this may answer your question.
