It just isn't the same without the Leafs in the playoffs.

What's hockey?

Not the same without Oilers!

It's not worth watching hockey if the Oilers aren't in the playoffs!

Yah right! What Canuck doesn't watch hockey????

When I read the title to the thread I thought that the Queen had given Flat Stanley a title.....then I read the post, and all it did was bring back a very dark period in my memory, when I was married to a hockey player....what a mistake that was!

Now that sounds like something we would like to hear about.

From the lyrics of Great Big Sea's song, Helmethead:

Helmethead

I was just seventeen, when I made the AHL
I couldn‘t skate in junior, but my fists rang like a bell.
I‘ll never win a title, and I‘ll never win the cup,
But when it comes to ladies, I‘ve had the best of luck.

My first one was a sly one, hanging round the rink,
But they sent me off to Cornwall, as fast as you could blink,
In Moose Jaw I was right in love, the daughter of the coach —
He traded me for nothing, didn‘t take to my approach.

So good-bye, fare thee well,
There‘s no time for delay,
You‘ll see me at the face-off, or catch the play-by-play
So good-bye, fare thee well,
I‘m glad you shared my bed,
But never trust a fellow with a helmet on his head.

Chantal was from Moncton, elle a jouer avec moi.
A tongue as sharp as razors, but she had a fancy car.
Her husband was a bruiser, played senior in Quebec,
If he‘d had the rights of it, it would have been my neck.

Nancy couldn‘t watch me fight, she‘d always be in tears,
Waving from the bleachers, and screaming in my ears,
Dee I should have married, and we had a dandy fling,
But I had a one way contract, blew the money for the ring.

I should have sent a letter, and it would have been polite,
But I‘m cleaning out my locker, and time is getting tight.
I‘m calling from the station, perhaps another day,
Cause they‘re calling up a rookie, and they‘re trading me away.

Last year I dropped an email to the sports director of a local TV station during the Stanley Cup Finals. There wasn't one mention of the game from the night before. I said that surely I wasn't the only hockey fan in the Boston area. I did get an apology and they said they would bring it to the attention of the morning show producers.

But can you imagine not one word on a finals game? What is this world coming to?!

I love it! Fabulous! Thanks for the laugh!

And mshatty, and as my DH would say to you "do-n-na-u -worry."....the story is pretty dull..and thankfully, so long ago, I have forgotten many details, and definitely thawed out from the midnight ice rink games.....and you met my true love, DH, and he has never worn a helmet, and the only way he skates is metaphorically, on thin ice sometimes here at home, but then again, he never gets hip-checked, 'cause he always knows where the blue line is, and knows how to score a goal.

Well, I must say I'm glad to see a hockey thread somewhere. I tried starting one on the Canada board over on TUG last year and it died a quick death.

Growing up with the Hockey Night in Canada theme firmly embedded in my brain - I remember watching hockey with my father as a child the night that Darryl Sittler scored his first NHL goal - I am a lifelong fan.

Living on the west coast, a big Canucks fan, then Calgary, then will have to throw my lot in with Ottawa, the last Canadian team to make the playoffs this year if need be. A lot of Canucks fans are happy to be in the playoffs, let alone inning our division so it's a winning season for us this year.

So I hope this thread or discussion kind of keeps running as it whittles down.
