We got free tickets thru the school so yesterday we drove to the far side of Shanghai to see China's only professional hockey team play. The team is associated somehow with the San Jose Sharks so they had a few non-Asians on the roster but it was mostly Chinese players.
This being my first hockey game, I have no idea if it was good or not but we had fun anyway. These teams play in the Asia League with all the teams being from China, Japan or South Korea. The league is home to such hockey powerhouses as the Nikko Ice Bucks, the Nippon Paper Cranes, the High1 (that's it...High1), and my personal favorite - the Seibu Prince Rabbits. As usual something is probably lost in translation.
