In ice hockey, there are 6 players on a team: 1 goaltender, 2 defensemen, and 3 forwards.
Ice hockey is a sport played on an ice rink by two teams of six players each. The objective of the game is to score more goals than the opposing team by shooting a hard rubber disk, called a puck, into the opponent's goal using a stick. The game is played with a goaltender and five players, known as forwards and defensemen, on each team. The forwards and defensemen use sticks to handle the puck and attempt to score goals. The game is fast-paced and physical, with players using their bodies and sticks to check opponents and try to gain possession of the puck.
