What is the difference between professional hockey and olympic hockey?

There are a few differences between the two, most having to do with rules: * In Olympic hockey, the rink is longer and wider. * Goaltenders in the NHL are only allowed to play the puck behind the goal line within an octagonal shape marked by a visible line out from the back of the net. Olympic goaltenders can play the puck anywhere behind the net. * In the NHL when a player shoots the puck down the ice from his own half of the center line an opposing player must touch the puck first before icing is called. Olympic hockey uses "no touch" icing which means play is whistled dead as soon as the puck crosses the goal line. * If an Olympic player fights he is ejected from the game, whereas NHL players just serve a 5 minute penalty. These are just a few key examples, as naturally there are other differences. Basically, NHL play is more aggressive while Olympic hockey is more passive and positional.

Difference between nhl and olympic hockey rink size?

The primary difference between NHL and Olympic hockey rink sizes is their dimensions. An NHL rink measures 200 feet long by 85 feet wide, while an Olympic rink is larger at 197 feet long and 98.5 feet wide. This extra width in Olympic rinks allows for a different style of play, emphasizing speed and skill, whereas the NHL's narrower rink creates a more physical, fast-paced game. The differences in size can significantly impact gameplay strategies and player dynamics.
