Opening Night

Yesterday officially marked the opening of the 2010-2011 NHL season, and with that, came the first game of the season, which was played in Finland between Minnesota and Carolina.  I don't know about you, but I wouldn't open a season between two teams that are unlikely to contend for a playoff spot this year.  The other games?  Three of the other four games featured some good rivalries, with Philadelphia spoiling the housewarming party for Pittsburgh, Toronto making Montreal fans scream at management for keeping Carey Price (it's going to be a long year for him, I'm afraid), and Chicago losing in OT to Colorado on their first step in the journey to defend their title.  And the Battle of Alberta went to Edmonton, with this goal being the highlight:



It's going to be a fun season, indeed.
