NHL 2015-16

I'm not sure if we have many hockey fans but I used to know every player in the league and every team they ever played for. As a kid my favorite team was Montreal and I still love the red and blue uniforms.

I have always been a Blues fan and they always do good during the season but can't hang in the playoffs, they have a curse of sorts.

It's the only major sports championship St. Louis is missing. We have NBA, NFL, MLB but Lord Stanley's Cup seems so far away. Anyway, I know we have quite a few Canadians and border folks, I think we may have more hockey fans than baseball fans.

Not only have the Blues not won a Stanley Cup, they are 0-12 in Stanley Cup Finals games.

The St. Louis Blues suck !!!!!!!

only in the playoffs, they'll whoop you in the regular season.

I'm not really a big hockey fan, but I did watch when the Pittsburgh Penguins won a couple Stanley Cups in the early 90's with Lemieux & Jagr, and then a few years ago when they won another Stanley Cup with Crosby & Malkin.

The Penguins have had some good teams since 1990, but I would much rather watch NBA Basketball over NHL Hockey.

In fact, I have gone to more NBA games in Cleveland (1.5 hours away), than to Penguin games here (20 minutes away)

Yeah, Pittsburgh is a good hockey town too. Somebody should start a NBA thread. Kick it off with Lamar Odom.

So you get to see Lebron now, live in Cleveland. Cool

So you get to see Lebron now

The only problem is now the tickets are really expensive.

I only went to one Cavs game last year, however it was a good one. It was when they played the Spurs.

Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili all played for the Spurs, and James, Love, and Irving all played for the Cavs.

I'd rather go to an NBA preseason game than an NHL playoff game.

Then you won't be on this thread much.
