Did Canada send its hockey team to compete in the 1972 Winter Olympics?
No. Canada did not participate in ice hockey at the 1972 Winter Games in Sapporo or the 1976 Winter Games in Innsbruck in protest over the use of professional players by some of the other countries. Canada petitioned the International Olympic Committee to be allowed to use paid players from the National Hockey League since other countries were using players that were paid by their government to play. The petition was denied and Canada refused to send ice hockey teams to the 1972 and 1976 Games.

Why is hockey called hockey?
The name "hockie" (now Hockey) seems to have been first recorded in Ireland in 1527 and probably comes from the French word "hoquet" meaning "shepherds crook". It's called hockey (Ice or Roller) because it is a variation of Field Hockey (Offical Name Hockey, formally known as Field Hockey). Some also say that in the old days, when hockey was being invented, they had to use the only part of the livestock that they couldn't sell at market, the boney Hock. The Hock is the horse or cow equivelant of our heel. The other more stupid version is that it was going to be called puckie because of the puck. But in one game a hawk flew down and took the puck from the ice because it thought it was a small animal. So they called it "hawk-y" or hockey.

Can you use inline hockey gear for ice hockey?
I would strongly recommend using hockey pants, elbow pads, and shoulder pads for hockey. Ice hockey puck weighs more than twice the weight of an inline hockey puck and it can do damage if your not protected. Falling down on ice is not so nice either. It depends what your playing; completive ice hockey get all the protection you can, rec-league hockey its not as important. Other than the things above most other equipment is good to use like gloves, shin pads, and helmet.
