BlondeStrat, take Queen to a game. I am certain you will both enjoy it.

IIRC, you both enjoy going to basketball games. Give it a try!

"BlondeStrat, take Queen to a game. I am certain you will both enjoy it."

Most people who claim not to like hockey who have only watched it on TV will enjoy going to a live game.

I get that it can be hard for a first time or casual watcher to follow where the puck is on TV, that skill comes with time, but its far easier live.

Wow... I was just scanning the standings and one month in it appears that the Arizona Coyotes have only 1 win.

Oh my goodness...

went to see the Orlando Solar Bears last night with my wife..it was her first live hockey game...

our son got us red line tickets 7 rows up behind the players...with only about 4000 fans in the Amway Center you got to hear all of the players yelling/trash talking....pretty cool stuff...

and since we were so close to the players,( we were behind the visiting team), we got to heckle!...oh joy!!

and the prime target of my disdain..(Fat boy as I called him), happened to be the their goon...and he was in the only fight of the night...and as hockey fights go it was pretty good....

ok so it's not NHL and the Bears lost 4-2, wife loved it!!

Man, this thread was buried on page 3.
Below the Medicare thread.

Anyway, the refs seemed to help the Hawks with a slow whistle/fast whistle.

Rangers mounting comeback. Go Rangers!

yeah..but it gets better the closer to the playoffs it gets...over 600 posts last season?..can't remember.

got to see the Cap vs the Pred's the other night...Caps got hosed 6-3...Holtby couldn't stop anything and the defense gave him no help...it was ugly...

but it beats the hell out of the NFL

Wow, talk about parity! We have six to eight points or so separating the top six or so teams in each division. Just a small handful of teams with no apparent chances.....perhaps.

It appears that now (a month and a half after the quoted post) the Golden Knights are still standing pretty strong.

yeah...the Knights are playing very good for a first year team......

as opposed to the first year of the Washington Caps in 1974-75...where they went 8-67-5...being a fan that years was just plain punishing...

I remember it well

I LOVE hockey. By far the best of all the major sports, but damn this season has been flat out dis-heartening.

As a Sabres fan (I know...let the snickering begin, I can hear it already), I expected so much more

I figured with the talent on this roster...maybe .500ish hockey through December and then some improvement as the team gels and sneak into the playoffs.

But damn...this team is just flat out awful. They suck beyond suck...they are worse than the last two or three seasons (including the tank season)and I would have previously thought that impossible.

I loved hiring Housley as head coach, but I think he's already lost the locker room. I think the wholesale destruction of this roster is coming.

And I know Reinhart and Kane will be gone, and personally that would be a mistake, but Ryan O'Reilly, my word, unload that salary ASAP...he's just so "not" a leader and his play is not worth the money he makes. But I think his reputation is still strong enough to get some value back.

It really has been awful.
