ice time

I really never had opportunity to watch much hockey growing up, not being from hockey town, so forgive me.....

I started watching some old NHL games on YT.
I guess i am surprised how many subs there are and how many stoppage of play there is.
I am surprised that players get fatigued so quickly and don't play (i don't think) like 6 mins in a row.
That 6 mins has say 5 stoppages for whatever reason.....goal, penalty, faceoff....
I basketball player can play a full 12 minutes easy....

Also it seems player WANT to get penalized, at least the 70s-80s games i am watching
