That looks like it will be a sweet game to attend! That game will have lots of action and I am predicting lots of big hits!

Your Bruins seem to be bitten by the injury bug big time! I am also a little surprised at how average Tim Thomas has been so far this year(for the most part). At least you'll get a couple of nice 1st round picks because of my Leafs.

Speaking of injuries, there sure have been a lot of them to big-name players this year, eh smc?

Add Ovechkin and Eric Stall to that list, as they both got injured last night.

I'm a casual hockey fan. I pull for teams on a casual basis, but I'm not so dedicated that I go to any length to watch games or follow particular teams. I enjoy "Hockey Night in Canada" on the CBC every Saturday.

Teams I like: Montreal, Boston (my current "home" town), and Atlanta (my former home town).

What do you think of the new 'Hockey Night In Canada' theme? Is it better than the old one or worse?

LOL, I haven't been watching long enough to know the difference. Also, Hockey Night competes with any NCAAF football programming that happens to be on.

We don't follow college football(and other college sports) in Canada as fervently as you do in the US. I've always wondered why that is. The teams could use the support(and the revenue gotten from television/seats sold/merchandise) sometimes! And the games can sometimes be even better than what can be had from a "professional" team(the Detroit Lions or Cleveland Browns for example).
