NHL Hockey is back!

What is everyone thinking after this first round of games for the 2013 season? I'm a Carolina fan, but they aren't looking too good out of the gate. Boston and the Pens both look great so far. Who do y'all pull for and what do you think of the first games?

Meh. Frankly, I could care less. The fight between the greedy players and the greedy owners locked the fans out. You remember the fans - the ones who pay the freight so these overpaid prima donnas can play a kid's game instead of getting a job.

That?s the way it always goes. I say shut the whole league down and let them get real jobs.

I don't blame the players. They have been fighting to get back on the ice since the lockout started. It's the owners and the players union that cause the problems. The players made multiple offers, that would have likely been accepted by the owners, that the players union said were unacceptable to them and never made it out. I don't blame the players. I love the game and love the players.

Love the Blackhawks, but would much rather take my kids to see the Chicago Wolves play.

For all the hockey fans...

It's amazing, with the lack of helmets, and how horrible the skates & pads were back in those days....that nobody died.

I'm a Sabres fan, and as usual they have flashes of greatness mixed in with total mediocrity & underachievement.

This season it's going to boil down to who's in the best physical shape. Sleep, cardio, endurance, recovery etc. rules the day now. Many games in a short timespan.

I think a big part of this season is goalie play. Many of them didn't work during the lockout and its very obvious. That's been a huge factor in these first 5-6 games. They are all starting to get back to par now and over the next few games. But it was very evident in the first few games.

Thomas Vanek destroyed the Bruins last night. 3 goals, 2 assists. Two 5 point games already. GO SABRES!! Clawing back into it, 3-3-1 and climbing (hopefully).

What about the maple leafs in seventh for the eastern conference, could anyone have predicted this?

Oh man I am so proud of my Pens right now. No Crosby, Letang, maybe even Neal but we came back and rocked it. In Fleury and Jussi we trust.

Cup or bust

Blackhawks and Bruins game one was an instant classic. Looking forward to game two!!

 

[broadwayblues]

Ugh. Missing my Rangers, but as a hockey fan first, that was an amazing hockey game.

 

[pr1nce]

Who wins game 3 tonight ? I'm gonna go with the Blackhawks.

 

[Fausty82]

Blackhawks win the Stanley Cup & Chris Bosh scored exactly the same number of goals tonight as his point total in game 7 of the NBA Finals. #nba #nhl

 

[pr1nce]

Blackhawks WIN!! Congrats to both teams. Great finals.

 

[john_v]

Yeah baby! Twice in my lifetime...now I'm spoiled!

Very good friend of mine is a die hard Hawks fan. Since both of my teams were on the golf course, I was a Hawks fan for him. Impressive game last night.

I do feel bad for Boston though.

My boss lady's boss dude is a Flyers fan. He'll be in the office tomorrow and we always talk hockey. Flyers have bought out Briere and Bryzgalov. Ouch.
