Hey guy's, who's ready for the NHL season? I know I am! GO CANES!!!  ;D

I used to be really into it but when they quit showing it on the major sports networks I quit following. I liked the Predators and the Red Wings

I love hockey, but I cannot stand how it has become more of a finesse game. The ref's need to put the whistles away and let them grind it out. Sick of all of this "obstruction" garbage.

Bettman pretty much ruined the NHL.  I haven't really watched since 1994.  Bad rules, changed rules, overzealous expansion and missed opportunities.  

Will probably give the Bruins a chance when they change ownership.  Won't until then, greediest owner in sports.

Hockey is still a sport?  :-?

Is that the game where you see who can spit the farthest?  

I haven't watched hockey in years. Sports Center is about the only time I even see it mentioned anymore. I can't even remember that last time I watched a hockey game. But I live in Southern Indiana. Hockey isn't big at all around here. It doesn't stay cold long enough. We are basketball college country around here.  They quit showing hockey around here when they stopped letting them fight and rough house as much.

I cant wait for it to start.

May catch a game or two on TV.

Still like the Flyers.

In response to jax:

Ice hockey is very under-rated. Most kids can get into a football, baseball or basketball game just by walking down to the corner park. Thats when/where the bonds with those sports are formed. If one kid has a football, the whole neghborhood can play. Same with basketball, one kid brings a ball to the park (which you know has a goal), everybody who shows up gets to play. Its not like that with ice hockey. A kid just cant walk down the street and fall into a hockey game.

I was lucky enough as a kid to have an ice rink around in the winter that we could play on. (ECHL teams played here in town) We had a good youth hockey organization and I was able to play in organized rec leagues for 12 years.

I love hockey. Go Rangers!!

Dude, are you kidding me?  Hockey is a sport, and one that very few can play because there not good enough.  I started playing when I was 5, and still play to this day.  

Can't wait till the season starts!  Go Bruins!

Sorry bud but the canes beat the flyers today i was there  ;D

I was just kidding on the is hockey still a sport comment.  :

I used to watch hockey until they quit showing it in our area. Asking if hockey is still a sport is just a common response in warmer climates. We find it funny around here. No offense was intended.
