my passion has been not as high over the last 3 years. It used to be that I'd make a point to watch each game and go to about 10 to 20 games live per year.
Now if I'm home and a game is on I'll watch it, I did watch all of the playoff games last year.
My declining interest isn't about the level of hockey, more around the style of hockey that's been bought into play. Its just an emotionless, soft game now, its been too NBA'd in my view, and its just joyless now.
Its too fancy and not enough battles and intensity, and I'm not talking about fighting, I'm talking the individual will of the players, and I don't see it anymore.
Even watching the playoffs last year, the Flames and the way they played was an aberration based what I've seen over the last few years.
