Hi everyone. I used to post a lot here on HF before the Lock Out and be a co-host with Bruins Radio Talk Show when it was Lunatic Fringe. I just wanted to get everyones thoughts so far on the first couple games and read through my input.
I can't call myself a long time hockey fan but have been since 2008. Since then I have learned so much of the game on and out of the ice. I've met some great fans and made some great friends. The reason why I say this is because this was my first lock out. For those who went through the last one about 7-8 years ago they knew what to feel but for me I literally felt empty and lost with out the sport of Hockey. Many told me it wouldn't come back but I am glad it did and had full faith. I'll stop boring everyone and get down to hockey!
I was at the scrimmage and the opener so far. I want to put my finger directly on Chris Bourque for now. Some say he has too much work to go and he isn't good but personally I think he fits in PERFECTLY with the third line. His speed and placement is right on time and wins face offs almost every time. Another is Dougie Hamiliton. During the scrimmage many people said, "This kid will be sent back down" but you can't let one game judge who a player is right away. After the opener many believed he was ready for the NHL then during the WPG game, Everyone is now riding onto the #27 train. Personally I believe this team can make a very good run with Tuukka in net as well. He has had a lot of people on their toes biting their finger nails not sure if he can do what Timmy did for the team but so far he has. That is my thoughts on just the new guys and the goalie. Anyones input? Thanks guys.
