Editorial Reviews:
The only table hockey game that is officially licensed by the NHL! All players are three dimensional and the game features the Toronto Maple Leafs and Detroit Red Wings. The teams now have two right grip attackers. Combine this with a left forward that can get back behind the opponents goal in Gretzkys Office and a center forward that can go back into his own zone to build up the attack. Puck ejectors, plexiglass shields behind the net and goal counters go without saying in Stanley Cup. You make them spin, pass, skate to the net and shoot just like the real game. The goalie moves from side to side at the net and can spin to block shots.

Summary: Stanley Cup Table Top NHL Hockey Game
Comment: This is an excellent product! We got this for our son's 7th b-day present and we've already had hours of fun with it. Set-up was easy and the quality seems very good. The surface looks like ice, which allows the puck to glide, and the arena boards are decorated with the logos of all the NHL teams. At least one player can reach the puck at all times during play, so there are no "dead spots" on the ice. It's much like the game I remember as a kid, except that the flat metal and plastic players have been replaced with authentic-looking 3-D Toronto Maple Leafs and Detroit Red Wings players. The fact that my wife is from Ontario and grew up a Leafs fan adds to the excitement. Hockey fans will love the game, but any kid (and parent) who likes air hockey or foosball will enjoy the competition.

Summary: Agree with "Best Bang for the Buck"
Comment: This is not bubble hockey. We play bubble hockey and bubble hockey is insanely fun. But Bubble hockey is $1000. This is under $100. It is 100% quality plastic and it does need to be cared for. You will not bang on it or fling the rods, the way you can with Bubble hockey or foos ball, but it is tons of fun.

One big advantage I think over bubble hockey is - there is a real advantage in this game, the way it is designed, to team play and passing the puck. Straight shots on goal will have difficulty going in, but using the wings to pass to the center, if you pull off the center pass, you should be able to beat the goalie with easy.

The other big plus is the players are interchangeable. You can buy teams for about $10 and than change what team is playing what team every game.

Another fun one is that play starts by popping the puck out of the goal - if you do it just right, you can pop it with a perfect arch and it will land in your opponents goal - GOALIE SCORES! A fun little cheat!

A good game.

Summary: The Best Bang for your Rod Hockey Buck
Comment: Way cheaper than the bubble hockey games that go for over $1000 and still a lot of fun. Plus, the little plastic guys never go on strike !!!

The kids love it but some care is needed for the littlest kids so they don't bend the rods or break the players. I'd say from about age 8 or 9 and up should be fine with some basic "ground rules".

The three main ground rules for a long life are 1. Don't touch the players, just the rods; 2. Push the rods back in when you're done playing; and 3. Keep the puck in the goal when not in use. (I'm not sure where to get replacement pucks, I still have the original from my 1980 version.)

Younger than age 8 or 9 should probably be supervised by adults. Teens should really love it, especially if they are hockey fans.

Very cool game. Lots of teams available, too. I've loved this game for 30 years. In fact, my 25 year-old version is still working perfectly. The best part is that my kids (ages 6 through 15) love it just as much as I ever did.

Beats all those video games I don't understand.
