Good job, Skyo - glad someone is in pre-season form! I have to admit - I'm not fully prepared for (semi) playoff hockey just now.
Decent preview here (tl;dr - THE HOCKEY NEWS’ SERIES PICK: Canucks in four games)

Looking forward to seeing Hughes and Petey magic once again!
Fuck it! I better go order SNOW (no Dude, it's not what you're thinking).
The Chef already has his snow and his shovel ready for the game.

High hopes Ferland can pound bodies all game and then make it through the playoff run...healthy.

For more than one game...
At the very least, we need to see the vets (Beagle, I'm talking to you) set an example for the kids. If it takes a teammate to smack Jake upside the head, then so be it. This is where the team has to learn to 'flip the switch' and it's a very short window with this best of 5.

They get a better
Dressing room for the games I guess.The picture of the one used in practice was tiny.
Let's just get a good feel for games with this one and not get caught into hooliganism. Get WILD er, next one if need be.

I wonder if camera crews will be experimenting with new angles now that the seats are empty.
