I wonder if the Seattle mascot will be Phil M.

Heard some critique of the games regarding fans and the arena being quiet and all that but man, there's some good hockey being played. If guys can't get amped up and perform because it isn't loud, maybe they should just leave dat bubble.

Then again I'm an Isles fan watching some good rivalries between the rags, panthers (not as much), and the caps. Games have been exciting.

Dallas Avs game just now was a great game. Plenty of chirping and good hits and Jaime Benn flopping.

Tampa it is. Watched game 2, it was pretty good. Didn’t manage to watch any others. Conn Smythe to Hedman.

On to the next season, hopefully a real one.

Yay Tampa!

Dach’s wrist isn’t looking good at all.

Chara to the Caps, for a song of a one year deal. While it'll be nice not to see anyone with a hint of speed blow by him, he's still a top 6 defensemen on the B's so, not a fan of letting him walk.

^ Hahaha! Made me laugh.

The dude had been had by Ovi a few times. Will suck to see them play on the same team.

Pretty solid game today, Russia - Sweden. Enjoyed it quite a bit.

Canada's schedule has been a joke.
I predict they get whipped by either russia or usa

^ I don’t know. Canada has the strongest team on paper, without a doubt. But Czechs did alright today and Russians surely can do better.

Russia vs Canada on Monday. We will see.

I was mistaken!

imagine if Lafrenierre & Dach were playing

Yeah, that was a heck of a game for Canada. Russian goaltending was definitely lacking.

Edit: Maybe instead of lacking goaltending, I would say that Canada went through like a train in the first period. Edit over.

Third period of the US - Finland game was tits too. I was sure the Fins would take it from the beginning. Didn’t quite work out. I think they were a better team.

I guess it will be the Americans loosing to Canada now, lol.

I think the Russians would beat the US, but I do not think they can beat the fins. We will see.
