So I’m watching Gophers v. Hoosers football, flipping channels, and I come across hockey on NHL Network. Makes sense right? Well, to my surprise, it’s Rangers v. Lightning from Prague, and it’s a real-life regular season game! I missed the memo on this one. I knew the season was going to open in Europe, but I didn’t realize it was this soon!
Penguins v. Senators from Stockholm follows this game. So if you read this in time, turn on NHL Network. And a quick check of NHL.com shows that Lightning v. Rangers part deux will be on VS. tomorrow at 11 AM CST.
The 2008 season is on hockey fans!

I didn't know either. That's why I thought my friend Dillon was an idiot when he was blabbing on about how this is the real season for the Penguins. My bad.
ReplyDeleteI got to see both Rangers games on MSG and then some of both of the Senators/Penguins games on NHL Network (Saturday) and Versus (yesterday).
ReplyDeleteThe Rangers played solid hockey with the exception of finishing plays. I guess Mike Smith and Olaf Kolzig each standing on their heads was a factor.
I am super stoked that hockey's finally back after what seemed like a long summer. Now it's time for the Wild to play on Saturday!
