Temperature can affect a couple of different variables in a ball to alter the distance it will travel from an impact. For inflated balls, the temperature can change the air pressure inside the ball giving an over inflated effect if it was warmed, or and under inflated effect if it was cold. (Have you ever tried dribbling a Basketball without enough air in it?) The amount of air pressure then is directly proportional to the temperature of the air inside.
colder = harder = faster = farther
yes rough ice does effect the speed of the puck in ice hockey. it makes the puck go slower then if it was smooth ice.

The term "puck-stopper"is just one of many names used to refer to the goal-keeper in hockey.
No you can't.
This type of problems about friction are extremely simple: You just multiply the normal force by the coefficient of friction to get the frictional force.
If the entire puck crosses the goal line and goes into the net, then it is a goal.
My hockey coach always tells me " A good player goes to the puck. A great player goes to where the puck is going to be."
This depends on the flex rating/capability of the stick shaft, the strength of the stick blade and the power of the player shooting the puck.

If you are going to pass the puck to a team mate of the boards, you need to have the proper angle so the pass goes to the teammate. Also when you shoot the puck you need to have the correct angle trajectory so that the puck goes as high as you want.

One of the fairies in A Midsummer Night's Dream is called Robin Goodfellow. His nickname (which he usually goes by) is Puck. A Puck is actually an old word for a kind of fairy.
Andreas Tobias goes by Andi, and Puck.
Peter Pocklington goes by Peter Puck.

its called icing and the penalty is that the puck goes back to the other end and there is a face off
A hockey puck can travel a far as any object if thrown with enough force! It is solid rubber so it can withstand tremendous force. More pertinent to the game of hockey, the rink is roughly 200 feet long and a reasonably strong player can shoot the puck that distance (and hit the far boards with force). Accuracy suffers with the longer shot but hitting an open net (6' x 4') is relatively easy, as proven by million dollar intermission winners!
