Thats right, All about Ice Hockey.
Ill start off saying that Im a big fan of both the Penguins And the Islanders, unfortunately both teams aren't doing so great this year. |

For me it's all about the Ducks. Suprising, since I live in CO, but I was born in Anaheim. I'd like to see them do something this year, especially now that they picked up Oates and Sykora. Oates+Kariya on a line is almost as fun to watch and productive as Kariya and Selanne were back in the day.
My friend is a violent Sabres fan, in painted his face red and wore his Satan jersey on halloween. |

He might not have a team for long.
Living in Edmonton, I hope the Oilers do well but I'm usually let down. They've had some promising results recently though.
At heart I want to see three teams do well and one do poorly:
Sharks (Hopefully they can get their together in time)
Habs (So much adversity every year but they rise above it)
Sens (I always liked this team)
Leafs :whip: (I love tuning in every Saturday night to watch them lose :D ) |

I've always been a Kings fan. They have been doing pretty good the last three years under head coach Andy Murray. We don't have that many stars but we're a competitive team that won't give in easily.
Jason Allsion is our key player who is out for a couple months. That will hurt us big-time. As long as the Kings have more wins than losses during Allison's absence, I'll be happy.
The season started off a little weird with Minnesota and Tampa Bay getting points left and right. It's pretty interesting to see how things will end up this season.
Hockey Season is officially open. One things for sure, the Red Wings won't win it this year. |

Hopefully they'll stay in Buffalo. Someone local needs to buy them asap.
I just wish we got national hockey night out here in co other than on satelite, Don Cherry cracks me up. |

Who cares about the Sabres? They're the sole reason a REAL hockey town didn't get an NHL team 10 years ago. Hamilton go screwed out of an NHL team because the Sabres whined that their ticket sales would go down. So I ask the question.....so what?
Anyway, I cheer for all SIX Canadian teams (used to be 8) over the rest but I'm a Montreal Canadiens fan at heart. No offence to the yanks, but I hate how they're taking Canada's game over and making it ty. The NHL is so crappy these days....too many teams and too many players that aren't good enough for that level. Hockey was the best in the 60-80's....now it sucks.
Gary Bettman also sucks. Why an American and former NBA commissioner is running the NHL, I'll never know. |

I don`t care how the Leafs do in the season, the only thing they got to do is get into play-offs that`s where the all hell brakes, and somehow the Leafs always do very well in play-offs, I hope this year will be the same like last year, tho they get into the stanley cup finals and not the conference finals, like last years, and got schooled by Carolina :(
GO LEAFS GO |

So what are you predictions on whos taking the cup home this year?
As long as the Rangers dont take it im somewhat happy. |

Well I hope for the Leafs to take it, but they have to start gettin better each game and stay like that till the end of the season and play-offs it will be really hard, tho I think they can manage, plus what I heard there might be some big moves before the trading season is over, so who knows.
Other teams that I see as contanders for the Cup are Dallas Stars, New Jersey Devils. tho Broduer plays to many games rite now, I think he played all the games in the net as we speak, Colorado Avalanche and maybe the Ducks, if the they start playin better.
Big suprise up to date is I would is Tampa Bay, :eyes:, tho they won`t do nothin much in the play-offs |
