Bye, hockey...
No more hockey till September. Always seems like a long time, even though we have one of the shortest off-seasons in sports. The Oilers should be very proud of how well they did. I'm sure they're disappointed, but they did a great job. They were the first team to
ever get to the Stanley Cup Finals as an 8th seed and they took it down to the last minutes of game 7. I'm glad that when they were down 2-0 they didn't give up - at least they weren't shut out of game 7.
Now, it's time to concentrate on the off season... The Mighty Ducks will no longer be "Mighty." They'll reveal their new colors, logo, and name... So much for them being named after a few crappy Disney movies. And that was so much fun to make fun of, too.
It'll be interesting to see what happens to my first love in hockey teams (the Penguins), but I'm not getting my hopes up until I see what the new GM does. Getting rid of Craig Patrick was a great start if they can work towards a younger team that will play hard.
I think the Kings have such
great potential for next season. With all new management, I can't wait to see what they do for our team! Next season really could be a great season for us. I like what everyone who's come on board so far has been saying and doing, so I think we're headed in the right direction. We seem to have stepped up our management and coaching staff already and we don't even have a full team yet.
