They both have goalies, they both use sticks, they have teams. They are both contact and flow sports. The way the two games are played is similar and you have to know how to play both offence and defence.

The most common one is the similarities between an "icing" (hockey) infraction and "offside" (soccer) infraction.

Both rules were implemented to prevent one team from parking an attacker right next to the opponent's goal. This player would then wait for a long pass from deep in his own defensive half and then have a one-on-one against the goal keeper.

Icing and offside rules prevent this behavior by forcing an attacking team to work the ball/puck up the field/ice using more subtle tactics.

Yes and no. In rollerskating, the road/concrete has A LOT of friction, therefore you can maintain fast speeds for so much time. In ice skating Ice has almost no friction, so you can go about two or three times faster on ice.

Balancing on ice is also very easy because of the blades width. They are a little thick so you can stay on your feet. Wheels for rollerskating constantly turn, so balancing on ice is a little easier.

Overall Ice skating is much easier, a word of advice, rollerblade before you skate, it makes ice skating seem too easy. Hope this answers your question!
