No Canadian teams are making the NHL playoffs this year...
    #23068595 - 03/31/16 07:14 PM (7 years, 11 months ago)

I gotta say, I've never heard such little chatter about hockey lately. None at work, none from my friends, none from the sports channels either...

A year to forget in terms of hockey. The NHL will bleed money this year. It's getting "soccer" attention...

As the NHL moves to go mainstream by discouraging fighting and abolishing enforcers I don't think they're going to appeal to a new fan base. They're just going to alienate old school fans.

What they really REALLY really really need to do is make the ice bigger like the international game. The NHL is too fucking cramped. It's annoying. It's a blast live but doesn't translate for shit to TV.

Rumor is that while the expansion team is going to Vegas, Carolina is having talks with the people in Quebec City. Carolina has trouble filling half their seats.

    I have always thought that Montreal or Toronto could easily support 2 teams. The original genesis of the NHL had 3 teams in Montreal. The barrier would be the opposition of the established teams.

    It's another issue entirely why Canadian teams don't win. It's either bad management/owner ship, or the weakness of the Canadian dollar, and I lean toward the former. Bad teams in either country keep getting the draft picks and they haven't been getting better. IDK for sure though; the 3 or 4 teams in Canada that were competitive have all got worse.

    FakeSunRa, I'm not sure if you would like the bigger ice. It does make for more skating and scoring. But you seem to like the rough stuff in contact sports. Small ice makes for more hitting.

My buddies and I are chirping each other everytime they person's team wins a game. Van was a good streak of losing, but if you wanna draft high, you gotta dump hard.

I started watching the NBA. Raps are having a pretty good year and will drive into the playoffs at least.

A smaller space is going to cause more collisions so that's a good point but it doesn't translate to TV because it's hard to keep track of what's going on.
