IT'S BACK!!!

Despite the loss in the opener, I think I finally have something to legitimately look forward to as a Leafs fan. Matthews is unreal, and Marner was the best player on the ice for both teams. Andersen still looked shaky post-injury, but I don't think there's any reason to worry. My predictions of the team being incredibly fun to watch appear to at least be accurate for now. Hoping to be in a position to at least return to the playoffs this year. Young guys are streaky, so it'll depend on how well Andersen/Enroth and the defense can step up overall. I trust Babcock to mold the forwards to a solid defensive game while capitalizing on their offensive talents.

Also got to catch Edmonton/Calgary. McDavid is a ton of fun to watch, too. Sucks about some of the injuries already to Quick and Eichel, but I think this season is gonna be a blast with the influx of young talent. Best of luck to everyone's teams.

That was a hell of a debut for Matthews. Definitely could be an exciting player.

I'm excited to see how the Flyers start off tomorrow night.

For some reason I find it hard to get excited about the NHL anymore. I went to a few WHL games last year,far better bang for your buck when it comes to ticket to enjoyment value.

That's entirely true.

I looked up tickets here in Boston a few days ago and they're over $75/seat for literally the last row in the Garden. Just doesn't make sense.

The Leafs new young players look pretty impressive. Maybe even have a shot at making the playoffs, though tactically it might make more sense to play exciting but losing hockey for another year or two.

Regardless of how the Flyers season starts you can be assured how it will end!

I grew up a Flyers fan and loved them but they just always found a way not to win it. The Lindros era was the last straw. So much talent and no Cups. Maybe one day.
