It was loud and it was raucous.

The patter of thunder sticks mixed with cheers and some screams, echoed through the year-old arena. In the stands, co-ordinated dancing was led by an eight-person team of conductors.

This was the eager anticipation of 5,800 spectators brimming over for a rare event.

This was hockey night in Gangneung, South Korea.
