I know baseball is very big in the States, here hockey is important. Well I must say I enjoy a bunch of big strong guys mixing it up on the ice as long as no dirty punches or sticking goes on. I enjoy the skill of how they can skate so fast and maneover that puck and get it past the goalie and score. WHen they score it is a real high when it is your team of course. I am behind the Ottawa Senators now but when I was out in Edmonton I love the Edmonton Oilers when Wayne Gretzky was basically an unknown player but that team was awesome. Man can those boys skate. I think everybody knows Wayne now. I was raised on hockey. Boys played it in the streets in summer and on the River in the winter.
