My gal didn't like hockey when we first got together, but the '04 run got her on board and she's been on the wagon as a casual fan since. By casual I mean like, she'll watch games with me, but not on her own. Though, she'll ask how they did when she knows there was a game the night before or whatever. She usually just picks a cute player or two and cheers for them for the season.
Give the gal some time. I'd suggest taking her to a game if y'can and show 'er what the excitement is about, but that's obviously not gonna happen for a while.
I'll agree that it's a huge bonus to have a gal who's at least into hockey, if not a rabid fan.
