I see both hockey and soccer as a combination of baseball and basketball. It has the back-and-forth action and constant pace of basketball with the anticipation of baseball (stuff might not happen all the time, but when it does its huge). Eventually you learn to recognize a scoring chance building rather than just seeing when the ball/puck goes in the net - its just not as obvious as bases loaded and a full count, and it happens in a flash.
