Holy Shnikes!!!!

Professional hockey is back in the states!! I'm am so freakin' amped...you can't even understand! I knew it was coming for the past couple of days, but now it's real. On top of that, they're making rules changes to speed the game up and really make it more exciting and fun. Taking away the red lines, tapering the jerseys to prevent holding and hooking, and shootouts to decide tied games are absolutely brilliant ideas. These are the things that will make hockey fun to watch again. The goaltenders will have to do more work and great *and* consistent, no matter how big the pads get.

I'm just so freakin' jazzed....I can't wait to go see a Bruins game this winter...or maybe I can. The team's been pissing me off lately...well the ownership, so we'll see. They traded my favorite player to Minnesota...now...funny thing is I was a Northstars fan as a little kid. I even had this really ugly green satin starter jacket with the green, white, and yellow logo on it. You NHL fans know what I mean...so maybe I'll go back to liking Minnesota, but it's not the same. I'll probably stick with Boston as a local favorite and love my boys in Detroit like always! Go Wings...one more year for Stevie Y!!

Ok..done now...so happy! It'd be nice if I was still in the states for hockey season, but if I'm not I'll have to make a return trip for a game! Nothing like it!

One more thing...
