    Off to the Isles Vs Wings game tomorrow night.

    Had the choice of a few as they are home 3 times while here but wife only willing to go to 1 game ha!

    Picked wings as have a soft spot for them. NHL on Sega mega drive back in the day it was always Detroit as they had a worldie team! Looking forward to see the Zetterberg also tbh. Still hopeful of an isles win

    Detroit are pretty awful this season. The Barclays Center is pretty bad for hockey as well, but for the prices of the tickets it's well worth going.

    Was at the Barclay centre first season isles were there and found it to be not bad tbh.

    Been to a few arenas for hockey now and it wasn't worse than others. As I don't go often I don't really go for the cheaper seats either lol.

    Wow what a game! 5-2 down with around 7mins left and win 7-6 in OT! The place was absolutely rocking. I'l never forget that game as long as I live. Wore my Nelson jersey randomly over my Tavares one and Nelson grabs a hat trick!

    Picked a good game to go to. Some comeback.

    What a horrible collapse from Detroit though.

    Glad you caught a great game! The Isles are fun to watch right now - if your a fan of all offense, no defense hockey! :giggle1:

    Bruins get Nick Holden and Rick Nash, sign Brian Gionta. Making moves, going all in. Love it - still keeing a hold of our attic of prospects as well.

    Not strictly the NHL, but Elias Pettersson just broke Kent Nilsson's record for highest scoring U-20 season in SHL history.

    Needs to bulk up a bit but I think we'll probably see him with Vancouver next season.

    He'll definitely be with the Canucks next year. Could see him playing with Horvat and Boeser.

    What made you a Canucks fan? My mom's side is all from Vancouver so my family's filled with them.

    Got family in both Toronto and Vancouver. I sided with the Canucks and saw my first game in 2003.

    My brother is a hardcore Leafs fan. Poor guy. Although in recent years the Canucks have been on a Leafs level of low.

    there's an interesting battle for the last wild card spot in the east going on between the devils and the panthers.

    Brad Marchand - 5 OT winners this season. Bruins hot and getting healthy going into the playoffs.

    Have to laugh at the Flames trading away their 1st and two 2nds for an average player in Hamonic and then totally collapsing down the stretch.

    Obviously want the Canucks to win the lottery but if they don't it'd be hilarious if the Isles ended up picking in the top 3 with Calgary's pick :giggle1:

    Great story - Chicago's back up goalie Anton Forsberg was injured before the game, so they had a back up called up to start today. He was the injured midway through the third period, meaning they had to use an emergency backup, essentially a random guy who has played goalie at a decent level at some point in his life... step up 36 year old Scott Foster.
