I played hockey video games for over 10 years before I ever watched a real game. It's the difference between doing a thing (sort of) and watching someone else do it.

But why did you choose just hockey and not something else?
How was the step going from video game to a real game?
Whats your relation with hockey today?
The first hockey video games I played were Nintendo Ice Hockey and Blades of Steel. All I knew about hockey at the time was hit people and put the puck in the net and it was fun to do. As far as how I started watching hockey goes, I was bored one day and saw that there was a game on so I decided to give it a try. It was Pittsburgh's last game of the season in 2008 and then I watched the playoffs that year. I still watch a few games a week during the season and at least one game a night during the playoffs. I don't really keep track of the standings or player stats because my memory for those kinds of things isn't so great but I enjoy watching the games. I also like to play football video games but could never get into watching football on TV.
