Any hockey fans??

c-a-p-s caps caps caps.
going all the way.

although it is still weird for me to see them winning a cup after so many years of being awful and all the disappointments in the past. (watched them come so far) haha.
 
They're just another proof that except the Red Wings, building a great team starts off with a very good first draft pick!
 
Sadly he and Backstrom did what you wanted them to do! :(

Still hard to believe the Canadiens lost this game...Especially after a 4-1 lead and a 5-4 lead with 2 mins left...
 
I live in Denver so AVS but... I am a Die hard Pitts Pens Fan~!!!

all the way since #66!!!!! back to back, let's go SID
 
You are all wasting your time rooting for all of those teams because the sabers are going to finally with their first stanley cup
 
I have been trying to get back into pro hockey. I stopped watching when the players went on their stupid strike. I started watching CHL minor leagues. Colorado Eagle rock, besides go see a minors game where they still play aggresive hockey for 14$ plus drinks or go see an Avs game for 50$ + then drinks.

But if i have to choose a Major I still like the Avs, they were my first team to watch right after they moved from up north to here.

Nordiquessssss :( :( :( :(

I went to the introduction of them coming to denver! great time!! I got the puck and everything! But that sucks we jacked the canadians but thank god we did since Canada and Russia are are the godfathers of hockey (Canada will take full credit watch ;)

and yeah let me know if you wanna go to a game brotha, nor colo isnt far and I have SWEET season tickets! they are $100 a seat!:rolleyes:
 
People in Quebec are trying so hard to get another NHL team back here... But even if we could get a new team, it would probably be a low-end team, and it will never replace the team Denver got at the beginning!!

Sakic, Forsberg, Nolan, Lemieux, Kamensky, Ozolinsh, Foote, Rucinsky, Deadmarsh, and of course Patrick Roy! Tough team wasn't it? ;)
 
Claude Lemieux, not Mario Lemieux! ;) Claude was an Ok guy, doing his good part in regular season, but in series he was a beast! But of course he was like 20% of what Mario Lemieux was, even with his back injured! :p

This brings back memories....transplanted Chicagoan living in Fort Collins, CO when the Avs came to town. Many nights in bars with my Blackhawk's jeresy on catching all kinds of crap as Avs handed our ass to us. The early Wings Avs. playoff series were an enjoyable blood bath. The two teams I hated the most just tearing each other apart.

I used to have problems with Avs being a transplant from futher north but now with teams in Phoenix, Tampa, Dallas, etc. I've come to like the Avs. I want hockey to be in areas where the kids can spend at least part of the year growing up with it and playing on a frozen pond.
 
It seems to me that the pro teams aren't playing as hard and with the enthusiasm they did before rule changes and player strikes. I could be wrong but watching the Minor leagues and then watching Pro there is a difference in the presense and power the players play with. I guess i will give the pro more chances and see.


I had one chance when i was locksmithing in fort collins to see the cup and get pics... i took two hours off my on call shift to do something and during that time my co worker got the call to goto East Coast (bar). They had the cup there you know the big badass coolest sports trophy ever cup there. Well they locked the thing in the back room with the keys to the back room with it. So my co worker got the call to pick that lock and got pics with the cup and players and then i came on call and he laughed at me.

Anyhow good thread.
