Hockey just got COSMIC 🏒 #cosmichockey #pavelbarber #hockey

Neon green pucks stand out against blue-purple ice, and even the net has a luminous outline. Pavel Barber's cosmic hockey Short takes a familiar stickhandling playground and turns down the arena lights.

"Cosmic hockey, baby," the skater says as the first-person camera moves across the rink. Glowing markings guide the way past scattered pucks, toward a goal edged in fluorescent tape. A shot, a loop behind the net, and the brief tour is over.

The clip drew roughly 144,000 views in its first 11 hours, putting it well ahead of Barber's usual Shorts start. The comment section has already passed five times his usual full-day total, too, with a particularly clear request: show an actual game in these conditions.

Viewers are imagining three-on-three hockey and an NHL All-Star event under the lights. Others have more practical questions, including what the surface would look like once skates have chewed it up. One imagines a slap shot leaving a glowing trail, an effect the clip itself doesn't show.

Barber calls himself a stickhandling specialist, but here the setting gets as much attention as the hands. Even the equipment has prompted a request: make the sticks glow, too.
