I think it's time to make a thread on NHL, for us who LOVE ishockey

My favorite NHL team is Calgary Flames

My favorite hometeam is Røgle BK

And offcourse Tre Kronor.

In general I like to watch a good game.

I was an avid fan once, had my favorite team, never missed a season watching them play. When they moved to Texas I lost all interest in having anything to do with the NHL.

Hey Norman! BITE ME you farking looser. Didn't you once say only an idiot could lose money in Minnesota ice hockey? You're an idiot and always will be you traitorous DORK. :damn::damn::damn::damn:

The last sentence most be "discussion" you have with an another subsimmer. However I would be glad, if you could hold back those swearings.

@nikimcbee, wich team in the KHL is your favorite?

I can't say that I have, maybe it's because I haven't seen so many game from Russia.

I do know, that KHL is becoming more and more popular in Sweden.
On Viasat Ishockey(a channel only dedicated to...ishockey) they show 2-3 matches/week/ season

I have been a lifelong Canucks fan because I was born and raised in Vancouver.

Most years being a 'Nucks fan has been a curse. They are of course a good team of late but I would not predict a Cup Finals appearance for them again this season. My best guess is that second round will be our lot.

@the_tyrant: Don't feel bad, you could have a team that lost twice in Game 7 in recent history... that hurts.. or a city that hasn't had The Cup since 1915! (96 years!!) Not too many Vancouverites alive remember the last time the city has won the cup. The story of the Leafs is one of bad management, but at least there is also success in living memory. BTW, isn't the plural of leaf, leaves? :hmmm::haha:

[mapuc]

I admire that you stay with your team whatever they win or loose. Some of my friends "skip" they team when the start to loose or get kicked from highest level(Elitserien) and have to play in either Allsvenskan or division 1.

My swedish team Rögle have been at the top and down to division 1..but..they are my favorite.

NHL: I do hope Calgary will perform better play this season. I must confes that I haven't been following who's gone and who's not in Calgary.

That rekindled bad memories.

I'm also old enough to hold a grudge because of the Lakers leaving Minneapolis.

:rotfl2::rotfl2:the grammar fails
still, the Canucks are competitive, unlike the Leafs, most of my friends don't even expect the Leafs to make it to the playoffs

LETS GO FLYERS!!!
http://thehockeyguys.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/flyers-logo.gif

Winter Classic this year in Philly - hope I can get decent tickets, since it's Flyers-Rangers... should be an awesome game!

The perpetual playoff team (eight DNQs in 40+ years) will, hopefully, bring home the Cup soon - the loss to the Blackhawks two years ago was tough to take!

[LobsterBoy]

Chicago Blackhawks fan since '93.

And yes, the North Stars should have never left Minnesota. Such a grand rivalry that no longer exists.

Agreed; taking hockey from Minnesnowta to Dallas just seemed to go against nature in some way. I mean, when's the last time a kid in Dallas strapped on a couple of skates to play pond hockey on an actual frozen pond? :-?:DL

Detroit Red Wings FTW :rock:

[mapuc]

Flames defeated NY islanders 2-0. I didn't see the match.
Hopefully one of the danish tv-channel gonna send the next one.

I guess they do not send any games before the season starts.

Have to search the internet to see if there are a online sportchannel.

JEEE SEEE NIII CEEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hockey club Acroni Jesenice (Austria's EBEL league)
http://image.24ur.com/media/images/600xX/Oct2009/60352438.jpg

Altough they suck this year, I'm not the kind that would change colors just because they have a bad streak.

And because Jesenice is ''a sister town'' to Pittsburg (both were born and thrived on steel production) I'd cheer for the Penguins


And I'd sooner support Croatia than cheer for Olimpija (Ljubljana) :down:

Quebec Nordiques!!!

I bought this hat in Canada a couple of years ago and I saw 2 pre-season games in Montréal: Montréal vs. Toronto Maple Leafs and Montréal vs. Chicago Blackhawks.

Toronto are pussies!

Wearing a Montréal far away shirt got me this offer when I arrived in Newfoundland: "Sir, I like your shirt. I will make you a decent breakfast", which was hot dogs, vanilla soda, iceberg lettuce and frozen tomatoes with Thousand-Island dressing from Kraft tables sauces and instant coffee. Well. Viva les habitants!

I like where this is going!

[1480]

Chicago Blackhawks fan since the late 70's. Remember going to the Stadium in the 80's seeing signs like: Ciccareli eats quiche! Willi Plett pick up your teeth.

The Norris division was one of the toughest in all of sports.

Can't wait to get back on the ice.

and as always Detroit sux!!!!!!
