Okay, playoffs start tonight and since this isn't just a Canadian or American thing ... hockey is worldwide for the most part ...

Who else is a hockey fan? Who is your team?

I'm a huge Pittsburgh Penguins fan. I've met Sidney Crosby and most of the team, very nice people, they don't act like "stars" which makes me like them even more. I also follow the AHL and am a huge Hershey Bear and Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguin fan too. I just love the hockey organizations overall too, most teams do so much good in their communities and with charity, it's so amazing. Now the NHL overall, that's a differnt story, a lot needs to change there. lol

    I bleed Blue & Gold for my Sabres! Disappointed that they didn't make the playoffs but I will still be watching. I love the Pens up tempo style and it's truly amazing to really watch that team play. So many weapons, it's just sick :sick:

    Loves me some hockey. Being from Oklahoma I am kinda a Stars fan, although we now have the AHL team for Edmonton. Since neither are in the playoffs I am looking forward to the Pitt/Philly series as I like the Pens. Overall I think the Rangers are going to be tough to beat but no matter what happens I just want to see the finals go 7 games and into OT for the cup. Nothing more intense than game 7 in OT.

    I opened this thread hoping for a discussion on the calorie burn for playing hockey. I play it but I dont watch it - maybe the occasional game.

    The 1000 calorie burn I was getting every Sunday night was great but now that my season is done I dunno what I will replace the burn with...

    I'm a Sabres fan too. I run the street team for the Goo Goo Dolls so I love just about everything from Buffalo including the Sabres. Ryan Miller is so amazing but I like that Crosby can get pucks past him. LOL

    I know goalies can lose up to 10 lbs per game from all the work so I can only imagine the calories you burn playing it.

    Yeah Flyers! It will definitely be an awesome series! I live in Boston and everyone is saying that the Flyers vs. Pens series is only other series they are excited to see besides the Bruins.

    My BF is a goale on a local team and yes, he can lose 5lbs easy in one game. Must be nice!
