You Decide!
Hardwood flooring isn't really the best choice for a home game room flooring. Not only is it hard to care for but your color selection is limited.

Yes you can stain hardwood floors various colors to match your rooms look and feel but does it really work in a hockey theme room/game room? If your hockey room is an office like setting then ok but otherwise be careful.
Hardwood floors are hard to care for and if you have pool tables or video games sitting on them they have a tendency to scratch and dent easily. There are of course different levels of hardness to hardwood floors and the harder the floor the less likely it is to scratch so that is something to think about if you're set on hardwood floors.
