What would you do with no wife? I know that's extreme, but it could be reality.
Find some other interests...learn how to cook, she would love that. Take a dance class with her, again she would love it. There's way more to life than sports...I'm sure you know this, but you need to go outside & get away from the TV if you know you can't control your temper.
The thing is it's not just the games. It's this board. Every free moment is filled with this board. And it's great that I have a Hobbie and with the exception of a couple of people I like the people here but it's like fueling a cycle of me being obsessed with this team and feeling like I couldn't quit them.

Probably not getting as many gray hairs, not having to check the nightstand for any sharp objects, not having to check the bed for foreign objects, not having to look from the corner of your eyes to see if she has a weapon.
That Super Bowl win was pretty awesome though. I still can't believe they went on that run and knocked Brady down a peg (and did it again 4 years later).
Would it help to just offer an apology for being animated during the games? You mentioned a language barrier so that could certainly complicate things but as long as you're being a good husband I would think that would still win the day.

f*** this board. This board is even less important than the team. Think of Homer Simpson worrying about impressing the old drunks on the bar stools at Moe's. That's what this place is. Anonymous strangers on an internet message board mean NOTHING in the grand scheme.

First point: Yeah but I don't feel much different than if I were a Jets fan now. And I get annoying comments about at least my team won Super Bowls, yeah but they've also sucked for a dozen years.
Second point: Yeah, my wife told her I was ashamed and concerned and she seemed like it wasn't a problem.
But you know damage being done is a real thing. There are certain people that I have forgiven over some stuff but won't ever quite see the same way. And yeah I know in reality I didn't do anything terrible. Not like I hit my wife or something or cheated on her. But seeing a calm and seemingly nice guy fly off the handle may be jarring.
This is kind of weird but I watch so much true crime and internalize it. Often you see people living double lives or being two faced and I worry about that perception of me.

My dad used to say no politics or religion (discussion) to try to keep things nice.
I'm glad no one needs to say anything about there being no religion in my family gatherings.
Henry is on his way to Poland for 3 months this morning. Casts a pall over the holiday quite a bit today. While I’m very happy with my new relationship and excited that we’re expecting, she’s smack dab in the middle of vicious first trimester nausea so kinda kills the foodie holiday a bit as well. Still thankful. Hug your kids, your wives and your people and enjoy the day.

@SnowblindNYR , brother, sign out of here for a few weeks and take a break from watching this team if it's causing you to have literal fits of anger that are scaring your wife and in laws. Apologize to your in laws with a Google translate assist and explain that you get way too into hockey sometimes.
It's just not worth it. Pick up another hobby and redirect that energy towards your wife. Plan date nights with your wife instead of watching hockey for a bit. Keep going to therapy and ask them for help with regards to directing and expressing your anger.
I was you in my early 20's. It's alright to be excited and to be passionate and loud, but when you're launching TV remotes through the wall like I did over 10 years ago, that was the wake up call to dial it down.

As someone who's gotten his wife into hockey over the years, my advice for you is this:
Sarcasm over anger, every time.
Honestly, as a Rangers fan, you have to expect that this team is gonna find some stupid way to lose and it's never the way you think, and you have to go into every season expecting it not to be the year. And you have to kind of laugh and say "I knew that would happen" when they invariably blow it.
Being married is really great. I basically live with my best friend who I'm also sexually attracted to, we come home to each other every day, we have this incredible 2 acre property and 2500+ square foot house that's our own personal playground, neither one of us has to travel to see each other, and I get to fall asleep holding her every single night. The high of that basically beats any high from a hockey win, and when the team starts doing shitty, if you keep that perspective it makes it that much easier to shut the TV off in the 2nd period of a game like the other night and watch How I Met Your Mother reruns with her and just go spend other quality time together. The team will still be here the day after.
