HOCKEY:
Faster Than Ever

Technology, physics, and other topics highlight the advances of the sport over time and show that science is found everywhere in hockey.

Diversity is incorporated as a sub-theme to explore how hockey is a sport for everyone to enjoy.

Innovative displays – like a captivating locker room – present historical objects, artifacts, and state-of-the-art equipment.

Visitors are guided from the locker room through a media-rich tunnel to a ‘Hockey Science Lab’ where they can experiment with hands-on interactives in a rink-style area. Interactive experiences and challenges demonstrate fun and engaging scientific concepts for all ages.

Key Interactives

• Reaction Time – how many lights can you hit in one minute?

• Slapshot Speed – what’s your highest speed in three shots?

• How many targets can your puck hit in 30 seconds?

• Stanley Cup touchscreen.

• Education cart developed by the Montréal Science Centre, with multiple fun activities and games for all ages!

Key Objects

•  Snap a selfie on a Zamboni ice resurfacer

• 19th and 20th-century skates and gear

• Displays showing the evolution of protective gear
