Hell yea man, I am a HUGE hockey fan!!! I play goaltender for the SEJHL (which is U20 Junior C) at the moment. Id say my favorite team has to be the Av's lmao, but I am keeping my eye out for the Ducks too since htey have my favorite player, JS Giguere. Good to know someone else on here has a taiste for the game! Do you play too Rob?

I don't play personally, I have always wonted to but never really had a chance. The Ducks are my second favorite team or though they are struggling even more than the Penguins!! I go and see my home team play a lot and my dad who owns a pub used to sponsor some of the players so thats cool. I would say ice hockey is my second favorite sport, but a very close second to MMA!! I watch all the UFC events and i LOVE The Ultimate Fighter!! My home teams website!! www.wightlinkraiders.com/As you can see there not the best team in the world but i will support them none the less!!

Umm, I'm from Canada, doesn't that make me HAVE to like hockey? Honestly, I've become much more of a NBA fan in recent years (Season seats to the Raptors!) But the last few years have really drew me back in. Ovelchkin and Crosby are such joys to watch, and so many other young guys in the league right now. My fav team is the Canucks!

Thats scary my favorite NBA team is the Raptors!! I would love to watch there games but unfortunately we just don't get the coverage the NBA deserves!! I used to play B-ball all the time at school and loved it. I like the NHL and NBA because of the fast pace of the game, unlike football (soccer) where when a team dominates the game just stays on the one side of the pitch!! Were as with Ice Hockey and B-Ball it is up and down all the time, this makes it a lot more interesting for me. The only sport i watch that could be considered slow is Rugby, but that is a great sport. I only watch the international games though as the league games don't really grip me!! Same with soccer

Yea man sucks for the Ducks, atleast they turned it around the other night. You should definitely try play dude, I am not sure about in the UK but even in Florida you can find some good mens leagues, where most of the players started playing after college.

Yer well my old Foreman from doing site work is the under 21 coach so i should give him a ring, even though i wouldn't be in the under 21s he would let me know who to talk to. Yer i watched the Ducks game!! What a match!! I thought they would def lose as they had lost the last 4games and the Sharks Were unbeaten so i was pleasantly surprised!! and there where a few good fights as well!! Thats why the Ducks are so great to watch, they have to be one of the harder hitting teams in the NHL
