Never shoot hockey on Av

First of all, almost all non-pro hockey rinks are not well lit.

So, as others have said, high ISO is necessary.

There's a really valid, highly obvious, reason for not shooting in Av, and it's the same reason you have dark shots with your current camera.

I'll be back later today with the sanwer; just curious if anyone will add it here before I get back.

Anyway, the T2iand the 70-200 should be fine, as long as the lighting is OK.
