Wouldn't a WC and 24/7 be a no brainer in Minnesota? The national attention would probably get the state's media outlets and fans more involved too?
e: video there just because it reminded me how awesome 24/7 is but saddens me that so far I have a mild-to-deep hate for all the teams involved including this years...

The game doesn't translate well to TV. The television angles all suck. Plus, the crew spends too much time romanticizing the outdoor game and not enough on the actual game, itself.

Thank you, sweet rabbit
Minnesota should be getting a Winter Classic in the next couple years and now everyone's bored of them.
Sounds about right.

I can't say I'm huge fan of the event itself its just another 2/3 point game, but huge fan of the HBO 24/7 and I don't want for it to go away anytime soon. It ought to be done with a playoff series without disclosing injuries or work around the delicate matters somehow.
I'm pretty sick of them too, but mostly because they've just been another platform for showcasing terrible teams from the leastern conference.
They talked about the wild on NHL tonight. Two people had them in their power rankings. Also there was three teams from the central division in there rankings.

Am I the only one who's happy Koivu and Parise aren't participating in Movember? Koivu grew a moustache once and he looked like a sex predator, and my imagination tells me Parise would resemble a Mexican bandit.

I hope Theo's mask is as cool as it was last time he was with us.
We really should make moves to get Rynnäs, I have a bad feeling he is going to be a steal for someone.
The thing about Rynnäs is that many think he is total wash after failure in Toronto.
The reasons for that failure where mainly injuries that resulted from lack of conditioning.
He has a good head and and clearly had intense training last summer, he has given honest interviews and does not make excuses or blame others.
He has stated that the goal is to make it in the NHL.
He is a giant, 6'5 now, that is the reason his conditioning was of, major case of growth spurt and lack of the physical training to support that.
This happened just when he went to the army also, almost quit his career then.
He is still only 26, knows what it takes to make it in NHL, is doing it, has confidence and is blasting the Finnish league.

Absolutely ridiculous:
1. Chicago
2. Anaheim
3. St Louis
4. San Jose
5. Phoenix
6. Los Angeles
7. Colorado
8. Minnesota
That's not the Western Conference standings, that's the entire league.

The East won´t catch up in overall points anymore. They are so far behind they can´t match the top teams in the West. Sure some eastern teams will climb up to the top 8 but it seems that the season will finish with top 2 teams from the West leading the NHL overall.

Am I the only one who is actually discouraged to learn that we probably wont be signing a goalie because of this?
