Uh, seriously, hockey is ok. I had season tickets for the Michigan Tech Huskies (college team) back in the 85-86 season. I don't follow hockey much anymore, but I preferred college hockey at the time. There seems to be more skating in college, and fewer pile ups in the corner or scrums behind the net that seems to happen all to frequently in NHL hockey.
I much prefer basketball or American football, but hockey is certainly better than that American snoozetime otherwise known as baseball.
Matt, Do the Red Wings still have the unofficial Dead Wings nickname (from many years ago)?

My team is the Canucks! I hope they beat the Flames:)
I think Philly looks good with getting Zhamnov and having Roenick return.

Aww, Matt, just sounds like sour grapes from someone who hasn't gotten over getting swept by the Wings in the '97 Cup finals;-)
Yzerman, Hull, Shanahan, et al cheap shot artists? Oh, puhleeze. Class players in a class organization.
1 million+ fans downtown for each of their last three Cup parades, in a sea of red and white, shows that the 'whiners' love their hockey.
Some cry more than others, but you'd hear the same from the other hockey hotbeds (Philly fans included), simply because most are knowledgeable and care deeply about their teams.
College hockey is perhaps the best 'live' sport. Because there is no two line offside, the flow of the game is better. The repurcutions for fighting are more severe (1 game automatic suspension), though I've seen a few donneybrooks involving MSU, UM, and Western Michigan.

Practically everyone around me is Canucks fanatics, too. We've one two games so far... let's see if Canucks makes it.

Last night, I can't believe the Bruins won in double overtime. The only reason they had that breakaway and scored is because the Montreal guy in control of the puck was slashed in the wrists first, and couldn't even hold his stick properly.
That pisses me right off.

Deservedly so! That's what happens when they swallow the whistles in the playoffs

Speaking of the whistle being swallowed... this was not the case in the Toronto/Ottawa game tonight. I couldn't count all the penalties in the first period alone!
I'm damn disappointed with TO's performance tonight. They looked much like they did in game 1.
