Hockey isn't anything close to the same ballpark as lacrosse.
Are you on crack?
Hockey is a legit major sport.
Arena's are packed across North America, it's also the most global sport beside soccer. All of Europe, Russia, Finland, Sweden, Canada, US -- all excel at hockey.
It's growing as a revenue sport in college too, a lot of campuses it's right there with basketball, or even more important
It's not that I disagree with you, just the fact that they both have a limited ceiling. Good luck getting Hockey to catch on in South America or Africa.
Hockey is a sport that is mostly played in the North and Northeast. There is 1 university south of the Mason Dixon with hockey.
The NCAA has 59 D1 teams. College wrestling has more teams than that.
I wasn't saying that Hockey and lacrosse were on the same level, just that they are both niche sports. Lacrosse is too similar to soccer(and more expensive). Never been a fan of lacrosse.

It will be years from now but football will eventually be limited to touch football once studies show major trauma to the brain.
