So, should I follow the NHL this season? How're the Penguins looking? Problem with hockey is, most games are on in the middle of the night over here.

No, we don't need more eurowhining over fights & violence.


Seriously, watch the KHL, atleast games will be during the day. A team of the Austrian league, Zagreb moved to the KHL this season.

I'm curious which of you has played hockey, and of those, which have been in an on-ice fight.

In an organized league? No.

I've punched my cousins on multiple occasions of ad-hoc games.

But I'm a bad hockey player.

It's a joke, CC is the eurowhiner.


Alright no KHL. The Penguins have great offense, bad defense, no goalies. They haven't played a game yet.

You should start following the Winnipeg Jets.  Their 2011 and 2012 1st round picks both cracked the lineup this year, and both looked AWESOME in the season opener.

way too early to tell.  Hockey isn't very exciting until after Christmas.

Yeah, but they weren't playing a very good team in the opener.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

I'm tremendously mixed on whether my boys should play hockey.

I am going to encourage my boys to play Baseball or Basketball and just hope they do not get seduced by the concussion side of the force.  But if one of them REALLY wants to play football or hockey well I will go along with it.

Well there's only one sport my boys are going to play whether they like it or not, and it's not hockey, football, baseball or basketball... :shifty:
curling? :)

Not a sport.

Eh, it's at least as athletic as golf.
and the horse you rode in on
