Editorial Reviews
Product Description:
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.

Content: I ordered the Stiga hockey table as a surprise Christmas gift for my 2 sons, ages 15 and 23. They both think it's really cool and fun to play with, even in this age when video games rule! This table-top hockey table is very sturdy, and just the right size. The design of the table and players is very realistic, and you can even replace the teams that come with the table (the Red Wings and Maple Leafs) with your favorite teams (sold online). I highly recommend the Stiga hockey table as a family game for anyone (and not just hockey fans).
Summary: Great Hockey Fun!

Content: As a kid, I remember receiving the old, 2d version of this "rod-hockey" game. It was the Flyers vs the Rangers. It consisted of a similar platform, but the players were just flat, black plastic with stickers! The game was so vintage that the goalies still wore the Jason Vorhees goalie masks (or should I say the "Bernie Parent" mask), and the players didn't even wear helmets. Everybody should have had a #8 on their Jersey in the style of Brad Marsh!!! Anyway...eventually Sportcraft came along and put this very same 3d version of the game, and ultimately dveloped a few variants on it. For example, some didn't allow for passing the puck behind the net until tthey came up with the hinged rod (on a universal joint) that let's you set up passes to the slot from behind the net! I remember one of our teachers in Jr. High School - Mr. Stern - set up a table hockey league and the winner's got to keep the game at the end of the year! I personally went through about 4 of these as a teenager...just playing them so much that the components wore down.
I don't know who "Stiga" is as a manufacturer. They are apparently a European group that manufactures sledding gear and so on. Whatever their gig...they did a great job with the specs on this table hockey game. The rods slide smoothly. The gears don't mesh. The players rest level on their pegs so that their sticks don't scrape the ice. The "glass" behind the nets helps to keep quite a few stray wrist shots from flying across the room.
For anybody who always wanted (but couldn't afford or didn't have room for) a classic arcade version of Chexx (aka "Bubble Hockey"), then this is the ideal alternate for you. It's well worth every penny...and I am certain my son and I will get plenty of games in on this puppy before we wear it out. Seemingly even more so than the old Sportcraft version. Thanks to you, Stiga, for keeping this one available to us!
Summary: Excellent Product with Great Nostalgic Value
