The NHL and NHLPA have reached a tentative agreement and will begin playing within two weeks.

I put on my Hartford Whalers sweatshirt to celebrate! :D

Although it's not nearly as cool as Mrs. Ivy's authentic Peter Stastny Nordiques jersey. 8-)

It's been so long since they've played that I forget which teams were good. Therefore, Flyers over Red Wings.

Yes, two teams from miserable cities playing a third-rate sport that no one cares was ever gone in the first place. :coffee: :coffee:

I went to Eric Lindros' first game in Philly and there was a guy wearing a Lindros 88 Nordiques jersey. :lol:

Hasn't even been 6 full months since the Finals. Every NFL offseason is 7. :coffee:

There is a movement in fandom to boycott the first game to show displeasure for the strike. Sounds like a good idea to send a message. Hockey as usual after that.

I still have my Flyers 88 jersey and wear it to Flyers games. :nod:

Very happy that we may get to see some games soon. Perfect timing in DC now that the Skins are out. :thumb:

I still remember the day the arbitrator ruled for the Flyers over the Rangers. Had to be summer, because I was sitting on the beach listening to WIP on the radio. Was so stoked at the time. Remember it like yesterday.

I got interested in Hockey in the 90's when SC got a minor league team, SC Stingrays, based in Charleston and with the Colorado Avalanche. We used to play NHL on Sega growing up and I was always the Flames or the Kings. We didn't have the 'Canes yet (they moved from Hartford in 1997). To this day, I'll root for Calgary and the Bruins (the Stingrays are an affiliate.) as well as Carolina.

My brother would be Detroit so I would play a Canadian team just to fuck with him. ( I don't know what his deal is with Canadians, especially since we have such a strong history with Quebec and the early settlement of New France.)
