There are many positions in hockey, what do you think is the hardest to play? (coach counts as one too)
For me i would say it would be the goaly, i play goaly and it is nerve recking when you get scored on or a close one goes bye. it also takes the most reaction time .5 seconds to react in proffesinal hockey.
(sorry not the best at grammer, i am also new here)

I'd say goaltender. They take the longest to get into their prime.

Did I miss something here? Is "Echo" the new "Ditto"?
Oh, and defenceman for me. Many defenceman are terribly overrated defencively. Very few are actually really good or deserving of the hype they get IMO.

goalie is tuff mentally, 'no thanks if you win, all the blame if you lose'
(yeah, a gross generalisation)
but physically, the end to end demands placed on centre men i think makes it the toughest. (but i would say that, an ex-center who has just started playing again after a 15 year break spent smoking marlboro!)
