Anyone else psyched about this as much as I am? Can't wait to watch Buffalo in a rematch against the Hurricanes as they race the Stanley Cup banner in their faces.
I really hope Buffalo embarrasses the crap out of them.

Ducks for the win baby
Hurricanes ftw.
However, I think it will be tough to repeat. The team is solid and a playoff team, no doubt... but others have improved (Philly, etc.). Not to mention there could be a letdown from having just won the Cup. ^^
In the meantime, I'll just cherish the memories of how quickly the faces of Sabres fans turned from glee to sorrow in the 3rd period of Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals last season.
holy macaroni!
I hate you.Originally Posted by Vedder
"Boo"ing the yankees is more important tonight until they're done and cheering for the Twins.
Then hockey can start for me.
woohoo, alright hockey!
My Canucks aren't gonna do shit this year. Watch out for Anaheim and San Jose in the west.
Buffalo in the East, even though I gotta cheer for the Canes, Brindamour is from my home town.
Oilers not making playoffs this year.
Toronto not making playoffs.
Carolina might not make playoffs.
Pittsburgh making playoffs.
lol I'm just talking out of my ass, but it would be sweet to see the pens do something this year.
GO GO FUCKING NHL WOOOOOOOT
GO GO HABS MOFOS!
Do they still have that young phenom?Originally Posted by Kross
ya, I'd love to see the pens make the playoffs this year. hopefully when lolinjuredfirstpreseasongame Malkin comes back he'll be ovechkin/crosby like in his first year of play.
<3 hockey
I know I'm from CA and all, but I don't wanna cheer on the Ducks or the Sharks.
Prediction is a Ducks / Sabres finals. :D
Pronger was a huge pick up for Anaheim.
lol already calling finals :DOriginally Posted by Norelco
Hockey season just reminds me baseball is almost over
Another season of NYR. oboy.
Hehe yeah. Would like to look up this thread in June and see how close/far off I was.Originally Posted by Kross
I would be sympathic to them, but I had seats in the lower bowl for game 7 and I went up to the upper level during the 2nd intermission to visit a friend and ... oh... my ... god, the Sabres fans that were up there were running around out of control like complete idiots.Originally Posted by Norelco
The contrast between those fans and the ones I saw leaving after the game was just so stark... it will stay with me forever.
Didn't he leave Edmonton because of his wife not wanting to be up there or some shit?Originally Posted by Norelco
Yeah.. he's a beast though.
I came down for game 5...worst walk of my life back to the car after that game. Sabres were up 3-1 and ended up losing it in overtime. You speak of stark contrast...haha, all of the Canes fans were all quiet and sullen when we were beating the crap out of you and only then when you won were you guys cheering. It works both ways.Originally Posted by Vedder
I love how people down in North Carolina are apparently shocked and dismayed at how they think Buffalo fans acted down there. Not every Buffalo fan is like that...so everyone who was generalizing is a hypocrite because they think we generalize up here about North Carolinians being NASCAR fans.
Fans are fans, yada yada yada. Not everyone in Buffalo is an asshole and not every in Carolina is a redneck or a NASCAR fan, what can I say?
What I will say though, is that the Hurricanes as an organization has alot to learn. What in the hell were they thinking passing out souvenir pint glasses for game 1? Did they not think people were going to smash them in the parking lot? Their website also sucks, with lots of outdated information and broken links, but that's another story.
Okay....sorry....needed to purge all of my anti-Hurricane sentiment. Really, I like North Carolina alot. My brother lives down in Raleigh and I may plan on moving there after I get married. I'll never cheer for the 'Canes though if they're up against the Sabres. :D
