It's not, a quick Google search will tell you that this chart and many similar charts depict ice hockey and field hockey together to attribute nearly 2 billion fans to the sport (although it's exaggerated)
The split between 2 is pretty even.
With this being the end of Hockey Night in Canada on CBC it only makes sense to post this. If you were a 90s kid like me, this is what you saw every Saturday night. The music, the intros, were as iconic as the games themselves. A very sad day.
Sadly it makes sense. The Federal government wants to take away our Identity and of course hockey is a big part of that. Yes I know we can watch elsewhere but still.
The Dallas Stars and Mavericks are getting divorced, and the city of Dallas is taking the house.
Dallas is now losing their hockey team up north, and everyone is miffed.

That's because CBC is an absolute joke, top to bottom.
@Sportsnet now needs to find a way to get hockey to the percentage of rural communities/farmers who relied on CBC for the sake of watching games Saturday.
"Everybody knows of the National Hockey League, everybody knows it's the best hockey in the world, and that Canadians all across Canada should be able to see it."
What a time capsule looking back on the first year of Hockey Night in Canada back in 1952.
