Well it looks like neither of our teams got off to a good start for the season, Larry. That's okay, though. It's the first game of an 82-game season and no team can expect to win every game, so one loss is hardly then end of the world. Besides, the first game players are trying to get rid of those early season jitters, especially the players new to the team and the rookies who are new to the league, so it's by no means an indicator of how well they will do once things get settled and the players are more comfortable playing whatever system their coach is running. Still, I think we'd both be happier if our teams had a better performance in their first games. Oh well, plenty more games for us to enjoy this season. I'm just excited that the season has finally started. This is the only sport I follow, so summer always feels so long with no hockey.
Go Hawks and Pens!
