We've never really thought of hockey as a sexy sport, even if the hockey players at our school always did get the hottest chicks. All that bulky equipment leaves everything to the imagination—and anyone who's been hit by a 90-mph slap shot will tell you that you should never take off your protective cup for any reason. Still, all that ice does give couples an excuse to huddle together for warmth. And there are few things more exciting in sports than watching a talented puck handler slice through the defense and stick one in the goalie's five hole. No wonder Canadians spend so much time on those frozen ponds.
