Not my first pick to watch, but I'll take it.
I'd take another 4 pre-season games over this tournament. Better yet, start an AHL Center Ice channel so I can watch the Yutes in Ut.
The Cup is soooooo ours!!!!!!!

I'm excited to see it and will tune into every game i can. However, poor timing with the NFL firing up in addition to squeezing out exhibition games. If it didn't exist I would be fine without it.
In Okinawa, all Miyagi know two things: hockey and karate.

Watching international hockey rates about as high on my plans for Sept_17 to Oct_01 as watching golf or bowling. Not very...

This looks to be more about Bettman's busines stategy, & sending a big FU to the IIHF and olympics committees.
Less Canucks embarrassment please.

Well now, Fredrick Anderson was injured in an Olympic Qualifying game yesterday. Collided with his D man and left the game with a suspected knee injury. To early to tell if he received a serious injury or was removed as a precaution.

So wonder how the laughs feel about international ice hockey now that their new saviour goalie may be injured?
The only HW the Canucks need

I suspect this is just the beginning, HW
Though some no doubt prepared for this and are in game shape, a lot more than likely are not and then freak injuries like that are bound to happen anyways.
I shouldn't say stuff to dismay others, I just don't want our guys injured and for some reason am more interested than usual about the Canucks this year...

Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.
