What is a "puck"?
A puck is a small, flat, circular object used in ice hockey, field hockey, and similar sports. It is typically made of rubber and is designed to slide smoothly across the playing surface. In ice hockey, the puck is usually black, and its hard material allows it to withstand impacts with players' sticks and the surrounding rink. The puck is used to score goals by shooting it into the opposing team's net, and players use sticks to pass, control, and shoot the puck during the game.
