[Nfbk] Blind hockey

[slery]

>From the guy in the interview, they play pretty much like regular hockey.
The puck is bigger and there were a couple of rule changes they made, but it
was only slightly less rough than regular hockey.

If your interested in the interview (it was actually about how he produces
the Cooking in the Dark show), I'll see if I can find the direct link.
