It's hockey in Wrigley Field. It'll be great, if only for sheer novelty purposes. I'd watch even if it were pee-wee hockey.

Every time Pittsburgh's gotten an injured player back, three more seem to go down. At least 16 players have missed games due to injuries. They've had games in which entire lines and defensive pairings have been filled by minor leaguers. It's getting ridiculous.

Glad to see the Sharks back to their dominating winning ways. That was a great early Christmas Present, win and shutout on the same night. Can the playoffs start immediately after the new year. 
Well, it'd put the Islanders out of their misery.Can the playoffs start immediately after the new year.
I went to my first hockey game yesterday (Flyers vs. Sens). There were a couple of brave souls from Ottowa behind me during the game commenting on everything that happened in the game in their Canadian accents. But it was a really exciting game and the correct result happened, so I'm happy
Psht, you should have gone to that game vs. the Caps a few days ago. I don't think I've ever seen such a lopsided score from a team who was outshot that badly.
The Flyers are flying, the Penguins are waddling, life is good!
And I'll possibly catch some of the Winter Classic, assuming it's over by Rose Bowl time.

^Why would you watch the Rose Bowl? Just to see USC paste some Big 10 team again?

Exactly. This Rose Bowl is some ol' same ol'. Give me Outdoor hockey anyday.
Went to the Avs- Phoenix game last night. Avs won in overtime, but it shouldn't have ever got that close. They outshot the Coyotes 46-21 and let them hang around.
And the hits keep coming. Sakic's out until at least March, Stastny broke his arm in the third and is out indefinitely.

My Mom made a comment on Christmas that she hasn't been to a hockey game in like 10-15 years, so I called in a favour and scored two very awesome seats for tomorrows Ottawa/Flames game for her and I.
It is not a Christmas gift, though, because I don't do those anymore. It was an I love you gift.
And did I mention that I will be going to the Flames/Sens game tomorrow?

The Montreal Canadiens became the first NHL team to win 3,000 games. 
I love how it happened in their anniversary year.The Montreal Canadiens became the first NHL team to win 3,000 games.
I hadn't watched an NHL game in ages until tonight, when I was fortunate enough to tune in to see the Leafs neatly dismantle the Senators. I'm continually being surprised by the fact that the Leafs are actually a decent team this year... not great, for sure, and it'd be nice to see them land a top-5 draft pick, but still far, far better than I expected.
