Game On!


Sens

It's official hockey is back and the Ottawa Senators once again prove they are the greatest team on the planet (personal opinion of course). The Senators beat the evil Toronto Maple Leafs in the first ever NHL shoot out. I'm still not sure what I think of the "new" NHL, but the Sens pick up one of the greatest one-on-one goalies of all time Dominic Hasek. So I guess I have to be happy with shoot outs because it's going to be good for the Sens. Also I was able to see the high lights on Sports Center and NHL on OLN (darn those execs at ESPN that traded hockey for pocker, like the world doesn't have enough people with gambling addictions, they have to put the stupid "sport" on television, what's next professional Euchre). Back to Hockey. This is Dominic's chance to redeem himself after beating Canada in, go figure, a shoot out in the Nagano games. With his help we can get to the promised land of the NHL finals. Forget the White Sox's 50 year drought or whatever it is the Senators last won a championship in 1927. This is our year. And to all Red Wings fans out there, why be from "Hockey Town" when you be from the capital of "Hockey Country", country beats town anyday.

To close, I'm happy that hockey is back and look forward to a great year. Being in Michigan I even get to watch Hockey Night in Canada Saturday night on CBC. Bufalo at Ottawa. Rock on!!
