As far as game pieces go, I think a hockey game would be more likely to have lacrosse balls or something similar - they're a lot more durable.
IMO a game with lacrosse balls would be very unsafe for spectators and volunteers unless there were extensive restrictions to keep them on the ground or we bring back the big nets from 2013. Anyway, FRC has never used a game piece that small, unless you count Maize Craze, so I don't see it happening.
