 | | Cougar forward Rick Morris races for the puck. |
 | | Chicago Cougars Hockey Club, Inc., 100 Ill.App.3d 664, 427 N.E.2d 290 (1981), while acknowledging that no Illinois court had previously contemplated the question of what, if any, duty a hockey club owes to a spectator, declined to follow its 1967 decision defining the duty owed by the Chicago Cubs to a spectator. |
 | | The Court stated, "we do not believe that the general rule of non-liability that is usually applied in baseball cases is necessarily applicable in hockey cases because there are fundamental differences in the way baseball and hockey are played and the dangers incident to the games." Id. at 666, 427 N.E.2d at 292. |
