wouldnt it have to be nhl? if we assume the players travel at the same speed, getting hit in an open field allows the victim's body to travel as he's being hit. If a hockey player smashes someone against the wall, there is no movement-- the same speed would feel harder in hockey
The board is not solid like a wall, it's built to absorb most of the impact. That's exactly where you want to be it actually.
