Thread: The official 2009-2010 NHL Thread for the 8 fans Here LOL

This is one of my favorite weeks coming up.

My Canes open vs Philly and then at Boston. Tough games to start the year.

I am looking for a 95-99 pt season and another playoff berth. The Canes have a good mix and have added some size.

Good luck to the Avs and fellow Medford MA coach Joe Sacco. (he is a class act really)

and good luck to the Pens for ECF and Dream (or whatever his name is)
and the Dallas Stars for Coach Chaz

As long as the Wings or the Slugs dont win its all right by me

Go Avs. This should be a rebuilding season, but I'll root for them even if they go winless.

lol nobody is going winless

The worst team I remember is the 74-75 Captials who won only 8 games
and the original Senators expansion team in 92-93 who went like 11-68-14. ouch

I know, I just don't have any expectations for this season.

I cant wait to see Matty Ice. He should make the roster this year. I would really love to see him and stats and duke on a line.....but it might not work out.


We need a goalie. And more firepower on O. It is a full rebuild, no doubt about it. But watching the birth of a star can be just as exciting as when it explodes. Hopefully, it doesnt take to long for us to get back to real competative.

I know that it is just preseason, but there is a little voice inside my head whispering "we aren't as good as last season". I am getting this from what I have seen from the preseason games; new players trying to replace the veterans that left. But, we shall see; perhaps I am wrong. We'll see when it counts, but we are struggling right now. Time will tell....

On a side note anyone want to play some fantasy hockey? 4 people so far, most likely auto pick so no worries about live draft times.

I'll do Fantasy Hockey.

Also, how delightful it is to log onto the NHL site and see that Colorado is up 5-2 against San Jose.

Got to see the Pens hoist the Stanley Cup banner last night, then beat a Rangers team that actually played pretty good. I said to my wife "it's strange, but it is taking me awhile to get into it again", but I think it's because they are just starting again, and it seems like they just ended a few weeks ago! And she said "I think it's because the announcers are so boring and monotone" which they were-the Pens announcers Bob Errey and Paul Steigerwald weren't very entertaining; I had read that on the Pens website many times but never got to hear them until now. Anyway, they pulled off a win. I was pretty impressed with defenseman Jay McKee whom they got from Buffalo; he was solid. A few new guys sprinkled in here and there, and most of them have playoff and Cup experience, which is a testament to GM Ray Shero, who is doing an outstanding job.

And I saw the Flyers get lucky and beat Med's Canes which made me nuts; did you all know that the Flyers are going to the Stanley Cup this year? If you lived around here, that's all that you hear about, as usual. I hope we beat their brains in AGAIN!!!!

Matty D and Stats are both centers...

Pens do it again in a shootout! Another great way to kick-off (sorta) the season. GO PENS!!!!

Ugly start for my Canes

sorry Med. That sucks.


But the avs are looking pretty good. I am impressed.

And Wolskie is tearing it up. Good for him.

Dang...

I was watching the game we are up 2-1. Come back from giving Noah a bath and we are down 3-2.

Oh well. Anderson looked good and Matt is really coming along. The guy has some wheels and balance. This kid, man, i am soooo excited to see him blossom.

Well except for the one loss the Pens are really looking good; the new guys are blending in just fine. They haven't missed much with the loss of Gill and Scuderi, as McKee and Goligoski are filling in very admirably so far.

And we beat the Flyers AGAIN so I like that!!
