Watching goaltending that is dependable, a defence that can defend, and balance on offense has been extremely entertaining.
I get extra excited seeing the core contributing... gaudreau, Monahan, Bennett, tkatchuk, Hamilton, brodie continuing to develop makes me very excited.
Those kids in the giant bubbles who just ram the #### out of each other during intermission
I've never seen bubble hockey at the Dome only Sumo hockey. The most fun intermission event looks like the slingshot bowling. I would love to try that.
When I see more offensive zone time than defensive zone time. I can watch a game all the way through with good games like that. It usually means your offense is doing well and the defensive side of the game is also doing quite well. I also like seeing strong checking because I think we are trying to build a more intimidating team, I also see what a big check will do to a game's momentum and the other team becomes less confident. I also like speed, exceptional offensive 1 on 1 plays.
Many things but mostly the offensive and defensive zone times indicate how I'll enjoy the game.

THE greatest slingshot bowling was the first one. They didn't have the crash pad at the end and people didn't try to jump off to get the pins so all three people just smashed into the boards. It was awesome
When the game opens up and there are end to end scoring chances. It usually happens when both teams are moving the puck and skating well. The team with the highest skill and best finishers tend to come out on top when the game opens up.
It's the neutral zone traps, constant chip-ins with few scoring chances that can be tough to watch, especially over an 82 game season.
