I think the rule changes really make it more of a european fast pace kind of game. Where the canadian game is more rough and tough kind of game, but now we have to change how we play, and i think they new rule changes make it easier for a new person to get into the game, things like shoot outs and higher scoring, is probably more attractive to and average fan. For me though i want some of the old hard hitting kind of games, cause thats what its like growing up playing my minor hockey.

yeah, but with the rule changes you cant have the same dynamic conversations as other people because you dont know about half the stuff they are talking about because they were in it with the old rules before anything changed.

Laces Out Dan! · 01-21-2008, 07:37 PM

They've gone down in the division lately. But they're still having a good season and I think when they get back to full strength, roster wise..they'll go on some more runs.

Lizzie · 01-21-2008, 07:46 PM

Laces Out Dan! · 01-21-2008, 07:48 PM

The Sharks are so frustrating..."Hey, let's dominate the playoffs until the Western Conference finals where we'll totally fold against a physically inferior Calgary team! It'll be really cool to how everyone reacts to us settling for bad shots all game!"

How can you call Calgary inferior physically. They're one of the grittiest teams in the NHL imo. Considering they're my Nucks main rivals, I see it a lot.
