Go watch a high tier rec hockey game. Aside from the fact that there is nobody in the stands and the level of talent is significantly lower than the NHL, there isn't a dramatic difference in the game.
Shinny is never the same because it doesn't have the structure of the game to it. Its basically a glorified practice where everyone is probably from the same team and they just split up into two squads for a workout.
When you go watch a regulation game with two opposing teams, referees and all that and the only difference is that there are no bone-crushing body checks then I stand by what I said about the difference in the game not being very significant.
