Yeah I'll be watching before leaving to go to the G. 

I've been looking at the teams to see if there is one I'd like to follow. I know of most of the popular clubs. I knew the Sharks due to their colours which I like.

I think I'll go by colours/emblem and then name. I need to like all.

I've narrowed it down to about 5-6. 

The dilema I have is if I like the Sharks best I'll need to wait until they are not so good to jump on board... Ha ha.

Hahha to match the Rams and the Dees. I'm an Avs fan as I lived in Colorado for some time and they have just moved from Quebec and then won the title not long after. In saying that the Devils have to be a chance for you G?

To be honest it would be between lightning, panthers, sharks, coyotes, predators.

If I was new to the game I reckon I'd be a Habs fan, got a few mates who are and who doesn't love Quebec girls.

Pens looking good early, 7-3 shots already but the Sharks have had chances. That leg injury looked terribly painful for the Sharks player, they didn't mind showing the replay!!

Yeah that knee was awful.

Sharks have had some great chances but seem very tight. Lots of mistakes by them over simpler tasks. Pens look comfortable.

I got to leave at 11:45 so I'll need to avoid scores and watch when I get home.

Yep, the Pens were too good when it counted and were worthy Stanley cup winners ... San Jose weren't disgraced but they couldn't get near it in the last period and a half today. 

It must be an awesome feeling lifting this historic trophy ... here's a bit about it's history.

Well, today was crazy.

Subban to Nashville, Weber to Montreal
Hall to New Jersey, Larsson to Edmonton
Stamkos re-signs in Tampa Bay for 8 years

Not too sure what Edmonton were thinking...they got absolutely annihilated in that trade. I know that they were looking for a right-handed shooting defenseman, but surely they could've done much better than Larsson if they were willing to give up Hall. Both Subban and Weber are right-handed shooting defensemen, and I'm sure that Edmonton would be kicking themselves knowing that both of those players were on the market. Larsson is an underperforming first round pick who's never done anything of note in 5 seasons in the NHL, and I think Edmonton have really shot themselves in the foot here.

Not too sure about the Nashville-Montreal trade, either. I just don't see how each team benefits from the trade.

He has a nice looking development of his coaching craft resume. I like they have gone for on paper looks like a good up and comer.

I think this season will be a write off/transition season but here is hoping they can bring it together as quickly as possible.

MacKinnon looking really sharp for Team NA, these kids got swag and speed beating Team Europe again 7 - 4 today, great to watch.

Will be interesting to see how they go against USA & CAN beasts who've had two heated pre-tourny games.

Auston looks real good!

ERRMMMMM AUSTON MATTHEWS JUST SCORED FOUR GOALS ON DEBUT (FIRST TIME IN HISTORY A PLAYER HAS DONE THAT)

 

HIS SECOND GOAL WAS CONTENDER FOR GOAL OF THE SEASON.

 

Yes it was the first game of the season.

 

HYPE IS REAL!

 

Bummer we lost in OT tho.

so that Auston Matthews eh.

 

CBJ on a huge win streak, killing it.

You put the mozz on them! What a great streak that was. Some of their previously unknown players stepped up and became elite players of the competition. Wennberg, Atkinson, Saad have all been fantastic. 

 

Matthews is a freak. Babcock said that he'd be a dominant player in the league by Christmas. He wasn't wrong. He's been sensational since mid-November.

6 of the Leafs rookies are currently in the top 20 for points (Matthews, Nylander, Marner are 2/3/4th) all with three games less than KO'd Laine so likely be 1st 2nd and 3rd soon.

Zaitsev has been excellent (1g, 15a) just having trouble scoring. This team is actually good!

I see lots of parallels between the Leafs and the Dees. It'll be very interesting to watch how both sides go in "completing" their rebuilds. I'm very optimistic about both.

In a playoff spot again, gonna have to edge out the Islanders or even better pinch 3rd from Boston. Big few games coming up.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
