Are we all getting excited!!!!

Well, I know not everyone on here is Canadian but there are quite a few of us so I don't think this thread will be a complete waste.

Hockey is back... and us Calgarians are loving it. The Calgary Flames are selling Game packs today at 2:00pm they have had 2,500 requests and only have 600 packs available. They sold 1,300 seasons ticket packs last NHL season... and this season they have already sold the maximum 1,500 and the season is still two months away. Hockey fans are going crazy to get these things... its pretty insane. The newspaper today predicted that the season would be completely sold out before the season even starts.

Then it is about time the MS Sea Wolves will have to come up there and kick some Canadian butt!

Wonder if the fights will still be as bad? Isnt that why they banned hockey in the first place? I might be wrong.

Still, there is nothing like two grown men beating the crap out of each other bare nuckle style.

Yeah cant wait for hockey to be back.
It should be one hell of a season, so many unknown factors cant wait see out pans out!

GO HABS GO!!!

Here in montreal everything is sailing along nicely, lots of tickets sold already.
Best part is I work there on game day so I have a job for this winter w00t!

No it didn't.


I know it did.. I was saying McCarty left for 1.8 million for 2 years.. because of the caps in place and how it works. It's a small amount of money compared to other sports that are getting 8 million for 2 years.

The NHL league has it's players spread out all over the place to work within the caps and income. It's going to be one hell of a great season for rookies and rising stars. This might actually make hockey a lot more popular now.

Sorry riser, I meant to direct that post to Bob369 who thought that hockey missed a season cause of the fighting.

I guess that just says the Canadians would rather represent American than live in bodunk Canada

The Cup sits in Florida.. regardless.

Because we think so highly of them.

My friend was explaining to me.. she works in a high class restaurant. They have slang for select people that come in.

Originally they would call black people Canadians.. so they decided they were going to start calling them 'moon crickets' because people were catching on to their slang.

I had to promptly explain their slang, wasn't technically slang.

Anyhow.. Canadians. Just an odd bunch.

Just like we call French Fries.. french.. They're American.

We'd all like to fry a French person though eh?

Canadian's think American's are arrogant un-diciplined peolpe ?

Not blaming the owners. Just stating a fact. The players were unwilling to take the pay cuts, and (as I said previously) the owners locked them out before they could strike.

No blame there, just reciting history.

Rich that one is pretty good.

Thank god for you being a human search engine... we would never get all this "color" added to our threads if you weren't. Don't let the Likes of RobD get you down, you are doing alright in my books. I take the good with the bad. Some of your posts aren't the best, but then we get little bits like this.

<b><font color=red>Go date P4man or something, bye!</font color=red><b>

Interesting how you single me out, isn't it? I mean after all, I'm the one who's ranted and raved about Rich's posts, aren't I? Answer that, smart arse.

Check your bloody facts next time.

I am a little surprised to see that you are upset about being singled out for this... as you have in fact done this. I thought you would be happy to admit that you dislike the vast majority of RichPLSs posts.

I didn't lose my virginity, Wusy stole it

She's coming home tonight, she was in Russia collecting the kids, who spent the summer with their grandparents. They had a ball, are as brown as nuts after six weeks at the beach in Odessa.

Now the misery starts again...

...*cries*...

So then, back to Versace closing off the store just for the missus again? Only this time, the girls will be going too, meaning you'll be even more brassic than normal.

My brother and I got into a fight last night at shinny hockey. It was great, been a long time since the two of us played on the same team. He threw a punch at his best friend then two of his teamates got involved... we all hit eachother around for a minute or two, then all went for beers. Don't know what it is about the game, but we always get uber competitive. Always friends again after though
