i really do.. i was looking through some posts from the "begining" and i came across this one.. im so sad now... it feels like forever since there was a NHL game to watch and there looks to be no end... the only good that may come out of this is what happened to baseball... ppl got pissed so they stopped going... now you can actually afford to go to a game...

Hockey? You miss hockey?
huh?
Seems to me that just yesterday the Kitchener Rangers beat the the London something-or-others and sent them packing. We've got hockey here... OHL works if you can't get to watch the over-paid NHLers ;)

I miss it too.
I'm going downtown T.O. in a bit to play street hockey though.
The Toronto Maple Leafs put on a competition (annualy) where kids and adults can play hockey from 10am to 4pm. There aren't really any prizes, but it is fun, and does get competitive.
Hopefully the NHL and NHLPA can work something out soon.
yeah i hear ya peter, i've been going thru play off withdrawl this april as well :( i just hope the don't go thru the same crap and throw away next season too. i made up for it by going to a lot of AHL games this yeah watchin the Hamilton Bulldogs. but its just not the same.

I miss it so much, I miss the playoff pools, I miss the late night highlights, I miss the game.

Well, I really got ripped off!! Couldn't even go to the first game this year to see the banners hoisted!
What a shame...

I guess I'm of the minority.....I'm glad they're locked out and hope they stay this way for a long time. It means more basketball on TV which suits me just fine!!!!

yes i miss hockey...but what are you saying? bob cole is the worst announcer of all time...he once mixed mogilny and domi up. and i even caught him confusing sundin with a player from the opposing team one time. just to name 2 of the many many screw ups.
i dont miss bob cole
but yes i miss hockey...

i prefer hitting mute and listening to the radio announcer while watching the tv....no one beats the announcer on am640...but its not his high quality announcing im drawn to, but cole's low quality announcing that i despise.
yet i still miss hockey
