I have been getting into the contact sport ice hockey. 
Oh really? Aren't you afraid of getting hurt?
I havent played hockey yet. I just enjoy watching for now. The sport is uaully played in a rink between two teams. They are both trying shoot a rubber puck into the opponents goal. 
Yes, and it can get violent can't it?
Most contacts sport can be. Ice hockey is very fast paced and physical.
Do you know how much professional ice hockey players make?
I dont really. I watch mostly the local teams in town. Ice hockey is most popular in Canada, Scandinavia, United States, and Russia.
