Still don’ t like these games. Boys playing plenty ‘nough hockey already. Good for Duncan Keith, found a graceful way out. Surprised more guys haven’t followed suit.
I can’t say I haven’t enjoyed watching hockey in September. Not bad games either. There is risk of injury, but those players should also be ready to go right at the beginning of the season rust-free.
Haven’t watched any of the games. Wasnt there supposed to be ads on jerseys? Haven’t heard or seen anyone say anything about that hot topic
As long as the players are fine with it, so am I.
So far so good. Krugs not playing as many games could be a good thing.
The only ad I noticed on the USA jersey was a small SAP patch on the shoulder.
