What a fight fest. Getting me pumped for regular season.

Hopefully this board perks up as the season progresses.:suds:

I wish I could watch it. It's on the NHL network and I don't get it.

But yeah, it'd be nice to see this board get a little traffic. Welcome, Kevin.

I saw most of it between getting the kids to bed but I saw 4 fights and probably missed more. It was basically the bruins against the Hershey bears but entertaining none the less. Valpatti and company did very well in kicking some ass which is something we haven't seen to much in DC.

i'd like to get into hockey ... but i can't keep up with that dang little puck. Remember when they used to highlight the puck ? Why did they ever stop doing that ?

I think it was widely regarded as annoying and the green glob of light was always 3 feet behind where the puck actually was.

It's good to see this board active. Caps were pounding some face last night. I think that will end in the regular season.

Agreed but it was nice to see some fights going the caps way for a change.

1h Boston's Chris Kelly sneaks one past Holtby to end this one in OT. Final score: BOS 3, WSH 2 (OT). #CapsBruins

I liked the comet puck for the all star game, but not for regular games. One major problem I had was when that puck would flash on high velocity shots and blinded you from seeing whether or not the puck went into the net or was saved.

BTW, is a black puck on white ice really hard to track? I'll admit it can move pretty fast, but there is no greater contrast than black & white.

Hey Krush - come on over to the NHL General GNT. Since this is the opener, we'll probably have a number of non-Caps/non-Hawks fan that want to watch the game along with.

Caps are carrying the play but Hawks are winning the game due to Carrick's mistake and a bad goal by Holtby.

Carrick is having a tough game. First NHL game at home might have been a lot to ask of the kid.

Can we send Connor Carrick back to the AHL before the game is over. He is playing a horrible game.

Power play was awesome until the 5-3 which had too little puck movement and too many slapshots.

5-5 was not good at all.

The D was not very good and could be the Achilles heel of this team. Carrick went home for his first NHL game and really had a tough night.

Holtby made two or three outstanding saves but let in two easy goals.

Great start by Grabovski.
