In an effort to include my students in Canadian life, I have
chosen to use to today's lesson to teach you some hockey vocabulary. It is playoff time, and I hope all of you get
a chance to watch some games and get to know one of Canada 's favourite pastimes.
Overtime:
When the game is tied after 60 minutes, we call the next
phase of the game overtime. This is the
most exciting part of the playoffs.
Overtime continues until one team has scored. This can mean one minute of overtime, or
several hours.
Sudden Death:
What makes this exciting is that the first team to score
wins. We don't play the whole
period. Just one goal. One goal and you are a hero.
