In general, how long is a hockey game depends on the league and level of play. A standard professional game, such as in the NHL (National Hockey League), consists of three 20-minute periods, making up 60 minutes of regulation play. However, the total time you spend watching the game is much longer. Including stoppages, intermissions, and potential overtime, a hockey game usually lasts between 2 and 2.5 hours in real time.
