im gonna go with hockey. with the skates, i think it requires a huge amount of effort to start, stop, start, stop, start, stop and start again for the whole game. as for hits, hell yeah, they're definitely hard...id go as far as to say they're as hard as hits in football. imagine a guy skating into you and checking you into the boards? and when you fall, you fall into hard-ass ice. every time.

you're also not just constantly engaging in rough start-stop skating, but you're always muscling against other players for position. and lets not forget about goalies....that's gotta be one of the most grueling positions in any sport.
