I wonder about the safety issues, though. Last year, I didn't see any frisbees thrown that I couldn't have caught. But I've seen slap shots that I don't think I'd want to try to stop even in the pads. (I'm no hockey player)

Idea! They could leave the floor as is (concrete, wood) to save flooring costs and provide a better surface for the caster pucks. Most of the venues are already floored with one of those two materials, so the variations in the playing surface wouldn't be that much
