OK. Here we go.
The season starts on Wednesday, the 3rd.
102 starts tomorrow! WOOT!
and I managed to get the home opener on Thursday out of my season ticket pool. Woot!
the Wings have a new pre-game video/montage this year.
Seattle made their case today; good luck to them! I can’t wait to welcome the Seattle Krakens to the NHL!
Ooooh, Thursday seems so far away!!! Grrrrr…
It’s good of the Flyers to bring Scott Hartnell back to the organization after his recent retirement. I think he’ll make a great mascot!
At first, we hated the idea of a mascot. Then kids were crying at the reveal! Now, everyone is hunting for Gritty merchandise! (I want a plush toy.)
I liked the Penguins tweet was “LOL OK” and Gritty himself responded with “Sleep with one eye open tonight, bird.” 
It’s like Animal and Grimace had an orange kid that went on meth.
I have to assume that Gossamer was involved, somehow.
Tom Wilson gets 20 games, that seems way excessive. I assume he can appeal that?
Can he possibly get MORE on appeal?
(Perhaps Leonsis and co should do what the Pens managment did with Cooke and tell him he needs to shape up or ship out)
Repeat offender, in an era where head shots are being taken very seriously, as they should.
That’s the politely summary of my own feelings.
Same here. In a preseason game, no less. Screw him.
Agree with your disagreement. He lined him up from 10 yards away.
mmm
Hear the sound at the time of the collision? I am pretty sure that is the hard plastic cap on the elbow pad hitting the helmet. His next suspension, and I don’t doubt there will be another one, could be half a season.
My goddammned cable is out!!! WHAT THE FUCK???
All I’m seeing is one of those, “We’ve detected an interuption in your area, please be patient, sorry for the inconvenience…”
FIRST PENS GAME OF THE FUCKING SEASON!!! I’m going to commit some serious violence here.
Good excuse to go out to a bar in your area and catch it on satellite. 
Well, the digital cable downstairs is working, so I suppose I’ll watch down there.
(Love to go to a bar, but right now the weather sucks, and I’m already in my pjs)
On a lighter note – I think this time around, jumping the sharks will be a GOOD thing!
That’s pretty sweet. I’m sure my Red Wings have something comparable, right?
Let’s take a look at it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WR2079oTYWo

OK, what the fuck?
Damn, the season is now starting without Jagr in the league. So I am officially older than any player, in the league. I’m starting to have doubts that I will ever make the league.
