Jerseys tell people what teams are playing. Hockey pants keep players upper part of there legs safe. Hockey gear is really important. It keeps most of their body safe. Tools used in hockey is a hockey stick.
Hockey sticks make it so players can controll the puck.
Skills in hockey is mostly controlling the puck and taking the puck away. If your on a breakaway you need to try your best when you controll the puck. If you lose the puck your team is in trouble because usually another person on the other is behind you. So you need to skate fast and controll the puck. Three things I like in hockey is scoring, not getting penalties and winning.
