Play in which Puck comes to a sticky end? (3,6)
I believe the answer is:
ice hockey
'play in' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'puck comes to a sticky end?' is the wordplay.
'puck' becomes 'hockey puck' (synonyms).
'comes to' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'a sticky end?' becomes 'ice' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'hockey' after 'ice' is 'ICE-HOCKEY'.
'which' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ice hockey that I've seen before include "Sport with puck" , "Violent sport, big in North America" , "Team game played with long sticks" , "Game played by skaters with a puck" .)
