Do we have any hockey lovers in the house??

[mysterycolor]

starting in the fall and lasting til spring i live and breath hockey- my home team is the Pittsburgh Penguins and i never miss watching a game other teams i enjoy, Boston Bruins & St Louis Blues...just not when they play the pens.

i am hoping that there are some other fans on the drome so that we can compare notes this season.

[Shreddhead]

Huuuuge hockey nut, and you know i'm a Penguins fan (just look at my profile pic). All i have to say is that there had better not be a lockout this year.

[mysterycolor]

♥ the pic shreddhead! if there is a lockout i will go bananas... last time we went a year without hockey i was a very unhappy girl.

[tmnt transformer]

Oh yea.... HUGE HOCKEY LOVER!!!!! That's me........... My teams are the Chicago Blackhawks, Boston Bruins......anyone that is not nashville or Winnapeg.

I guess that's why we have hockey video games.

HOCKEY!!!!!! Yes! Yes! Yes!!! Being that I live in Ottawa you can guess who I cheer for. Got my season tickets in the mail last night. Better not be a lock out.
I was a Montreal Canadians fan, because me father was. Some of my earliest memories are of Dad, Grandpa and I getting on a bus to Montreal, scalping some tickets to see a game and then busing back that night.
Grandpa was a Boston Bruins fan, and I have much respect for them.

I not only watch, but play rec hockey weekly with friends and on a team at work. My son Justin (6) will be starting his first year playing this year, and i will be an assistant coach for his team.

That's Winnipeg. Although not a fan, so glad to see them the Jets back.

BTW did you know Goaltender Brian Elliot with the St. Louis Blues has Casey on his Mask

I'm also a hockey fan.

Been a fan of The Red Wings(Hockey Town, Baby!) since I was 9.

Too bad I never had the opportunity to play the game.

I was also a fan of the now defunct Muskegon Fury of the UHL.

I haven't seen Hockey in awhile since I was living in Germany. But now since I'm back in the states I would love to see Detroit play again.

Despite never actually being to a single NHL game my entire life, I'm a high follower of hockey, which began when I would play EA's NHL 93 on the Genesis, in particular playing the 1991-92 Chicago Blackhawks team. I like how there are so many different penalties and line changes. Let's not forget all of the body checks, pokes, glass breaks, and fights. Of course I'm now a Washington Capitals fan, home of Alexander Ovechkin and Nicholas Backstrom and have been one of the better teams as of late despite never making the Stanley Cup finals since 1998.

I had NHL '93 too for the Genesis.

Awesome game.

Thats awesome. Some of my earliest memories are of Buffalo Sabres games with my mom and dad. Apparently I would occasionally cheer "Buffalo Bills!" But i was like 3 or 4 yrs old X)

NHL 94 on the Genesis is still my all time favorite hockey video game, and ive played em all. If only it had 93's fighting!

LOL. At that age we all just get swept up in the thrill of the game.

I never owned a Genesis, but my friend Matt did. We played NHL 94 all the time.

LOL how unfortunate for you

One of my favorite things to do is watch the Pens play on enemy ice (yes, i am that loud mouth out of towner you hate!) i have seen them play the capitals, islanders, rangers, blue jackets, red wings (sc finals!), sabres, maple leafs, flyers (playoffs!) and hopefully i will add to that list this year.

The Islanders game I attended, which i thought would be boring and awful, turned out to be the brawl of the season- when Haley attacked Johnson and basically every glove was on the ice!

I was also at the Winter Classic game, Pens v. Caps- an amazing experience despite Crosby getting injured.

Look forward to speaking to more of you during the season- glad to see some hockey loving dromers!!!

Hey MC,

I was wondering about your thoughts on the Sutter/Stall trade. Personally I think the pens came out better on the deal. You?

it didnt bother me. Stall is a great player and a great guy and hasnt had a chance to shine on the Pens- i also like Sutter's style and look forward to seeing how he works with the team.

[Shreddhead]

^No surprise to see Staal go. He's been talking about it for at least a whole season now. Not easy to show that youre a number 1 center with sid and geno ahead of you.

And MC, im so jealous of you! First off that islanders game was crazy, Johnson with the tko lol! And Pens Caps games are my favorite to watch, having lived in both cities. That one playoff game in 09 where crosby and ovechkin both had hattricks was unbelievable.
