Chester™ Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Another pumping for the Pens I see. Indeed. Sounds like another meltdown. Coach B's job is on the line I reckon. Still. Its a couple of rounds further than I thought we go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hockey fans' chanting is pretty lame in general. I'd love to hear a paedo chant one time In to 20T now. Only reason i'm up is that i had an overnight hypo after overdoing it at the gym last night!

My wife and oldest are going Friday. No games for me unfortunately this round. That was a great game last night for hockey fans. Oh and right now Crosby does suck.

Locky Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I can see I've posted on this thread before and I think I said the same as what I'm about to say now. But I can't be bothered trying to trawl the thread to see my post(s). Anyway, I'm definitely getting into this now. I've always found the best way for me to get into a sport is to play a video game to help me get an understanding for it. If I pick it up well enough to play it on the Xbox, then I feel I can pick it up easily to watch it. So, I'm getting into the game I got so I think I'm ready to apply my interest into following the sport in reality, not just virtually. I've decided to scrap my love in for the Rangers mainly due to the name. I got my girlfriend to pick a random team on my game to start a season with and that's who I've decided to adopt as my team. Pleased to say, I'm a Penguins fan now. Anyway, I know it's nearly the end of the season with the Stanley Cup around the corner, but the final test for me to see if I'll be a keen follower come next season is to watch this and see if I enjoy it. I need educated a wee bit. I know what to expect in terms of the game itself as it's plain to see it's a very physical, and fast played sport. But I need to know a bit more about the NHL rather than just the sport as a whole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konrad von Carstein Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Was watching the highlights of the LA v Chicago game at the Staples Centre and would have loved to have been in that arena last night, sounded amazing. A question for our North American posters (or Gersh & Chester), which NHL stadium is greed to be most atmospheric? Appreciate that during the playoffs all the rinks will be awesome to be in (capacities from 17-21K) but which one is held in highest regard?
