Hockey Thread

“My beloved Red Wings start the season this Thursday. This NFL and college football stuff has been a nice appetizer, but let the real games begin...”

“Ahh....finally a topic you can sink your teeth into, and your elbow, head butt, high sticking, and cross checking!!

Hey, let's see some SLASHING out there you pansies!!!

It will be the year of the DEVIL so life as you know it will never be the same!!

GO NJ!! Boo STARS!!”

“Horse hockey!”

“Most people up here in MT are Avs fans. We're not really in NHL country. I used to play a little, but haven't skated for years- until last year! Last winter I experimented with a backyard rink. It was only about 20'x40'. I lined it with 6 mil plastic and pumped water out of a little creek that runs through the yard. It was huge fun. Anybody else out there have any plans for a backyard rink this year?”

“Coolest game on earth!!

Bring it on!!!”

“Um...hockey's OK, but isn't this just the start of the longest pre-season in all of sports? I mean, they play for four months to find out which four teams don't make it into the playoffs... ;-)”

“Underwater hockey rules!!! You guys ever heard/seen/done it? Participants wear snorkel gear, and push the puck along the bottom of the pool, with a 8 to 10 inch stick with a U shaped tip. I've never done it but some of those players tell me it's very exhausting.”

“Go hawks go.I have been a die hard blackhawks fan for a long time.


Red Wings suck...:)”

“Do you have to grow up with a game to love it? I can't get into hockey. (Or soccer.)”

“I'm from alabama and picked up on hockey..and love it...no ice down here...soccer just plain sucks..forced to play it in high school...GO SABRES!!!! Red Wings...nothing but an imported Russian Olympic team”

“I totally dig hockey. Prior to this season I never watched a game but was talked into playing in a fantasy league. Fourth place out of 12 teams. I'm starting think I like hockey more than football now.

Just finished watching the Sharks whoop ass over Carolina.”

“hockey sucks”

“Poppinfresh, that's because you never participated in it? Join an inline or ice hockey league and try it out...it's a fast game. Inline will cost alot less.”

“You suck....:)”
