So for 7-12 km, that's approx. 4-7 miles of running. Yeah, they're standing around most of the time. Go watch a game in person and see how much they run. Are hockey players not skating when you can't see them on tv?

I have watched a "great" game between the Revolution and the San Jose team. There was a lot of walking around. 4 miles in 90 minutes is a slow walk. Even my mom can do that. ( opens up momma jokes...)

A comfortable walk on a treadmill for me is 4 miles an hour and I am out of shape.

Hockey players have line changes. They can't even last 10 minutes at a time...

The only people I saw running most of the game was the sideline judges. Soccer is the only sport that the refs have to be in better shape than the players.

Ovechkin led the league in TOI/S at 65 seconds. The most TOI/G was 27 minutes, that's less than half a game.
