In line hockey vs Ice hockey

Although most of the people think that there is not any difference between “in line” hockey and ice hockey there are a huge mount. First of all, the main difference is obviously the type of court, while on “in line” hockey you usually play on a wooden floor, on ice hockey you play on a frozen water one. Because of this difference, it appears another one, the style of skate. On the first one, skates have four wheels of different size depending on how do you like to skate. On the other one, skates have a steel cleaver which allows you to slip through the court. There is also another big difference, the puc (the item used as a “ball” in this sport”), in ice hockey it is way heavier than in the other, and that is to help it slip in the ice.  Moreover, there are some differences too in the rules. While on ice hockey you can be really aggressive, on “in line” hockey you need to respect your enemies. Also there is an offside rule on the ice hockey that does not exist on the wheeled-skate one, making ice hockey a slower sport than the other. To sum up, ice hockey and in line hockey are similar in most of the things, but they still differ on many things such as some rules or items.
