Just curious, but have you watched NHL hockey this season? The cancellation of last season, while a slap in the face to fans, might just have been the best thing that could have happened to the game itself. NHL hockey is incredibly exciting to watch now with all of the rules and systems changes. Under the old system, it was pretty clear that hockey was dying a slow and painful death. It really needed a fundamental format and reinstall to fix it.
I was kinda iffy about the new rules when I first heard of them, but now I'm convinced. NHL hockey is the best I've seen since the Oilers' dynasty in the 80's.
(please Leafs make the playoffs oh god ill shoot myself if you dont make the playoffs i cant stand that Ottawa is doing so well what the hell is wrong with Belfour we should fire Quinn and get another defenseman but oh god the salary cap why do we have so many old players why isnt Domi fighting everything that moves hey that Steen kid is pretty good)
