Hockey Puck With only one speed

[Hypnos_16]

Homework Statement

In attempting to pass the puck to a teammate, a hockey player gives it an initial speed of 1.91 m/s. However, this speed is inadequate to compensate for the kinetic friction between the puck and the ice. As a result, the puck travels only one-half the distance between the players before sliding to a halt. What minimum initial speed should the puck have been given so that it reached the teammate, assuming that the same force of kinetic friction acted on the puck everywhere between the two players?

v1 = 1.91
d = 1/2 way

Homework Equations

it seems I'm not given anything to solve this question, and I'm just straight up confused as to what i need to even start this question

The Attempt at a Solution

i don't really have an attempt, i can't get anything to work here, someone please help, or even explain what's happening here.

Hint: Consider the work done by friction.

I know that friction plays a role but i don't know anything about it, besides that it opposes the puck.

All you need to know about the friction is that it's constant. And my earlier hint.
