My tip for watching hockey on TV in general is to not focus too much on the puck, and focus on the bigger-picture movements of the players instead.
You'll know where the puck is, since everyone's swarming toward it, so it's more interesting to see what's going on around it, if that makes sense.
Another, more Olympics-related thought: keep in mind that the rink is shorter. The smaller neutral zone seems to be leading to more offside calls.
Oh I didn't know that thanks
That's an excellent tip!! I've been trying to follow the puck. Thanks mate.
The way I see it, if there's a big moment and you lost the nuance of what happened with the puck, there'll probably be a replay and I can catch it then.
