It's the first game, just enjoy it win or lose. It's a brand-new team they will need some to gel.

They didn't... Sutter just said that we will have 3-4 players wearing the A's this season. He also mentioned that Backlund and Tanev are the captains of this team, so I'm guessing that's 2 of them.

Ryan Leslie really doesn't need to tell us about the offseason changes for 100th time, and we don't need to hear Ron McLean and his dumb poems. Ryan is great just don't another recap the entire hockey world knows what transpired.
I don't think Ron McLean works Thursdays, does he?

Whatever period it is, at least we can count on you being pissed off and changing the channel. You do you.

I am not sure; I don't really watch the pre-game or intermissions Sportsnet is terrible.

the nice thing about this first game being against Colorado is I'm less convinced it will be heavily reffing rigged as it would be if it was the Oilers.

I mean I still expect idiotic reffing but it's always another level against Edmonton. "It was kicked in".

Great game to throw some money down on Colorado, who are actually the betting underdog.

If Flames win, you’re welcome

One thing I don’t miss about working at the Dome was those happy hour rushes. But the fans were usually great despite how busy we were at the tills

That's because we're all thinking, ‘Sure, there's a lineup, but if I paid full price for this stuff I'd have to work that guy's concession job just to break even.’

With Huberdeau having so many family members in attendance, maybe there's a chance he does come out of the tunnel wearing the captaincy? Could see Darryl doing it like that to take some of the pressure off of him.

That's what I was thinking too. It would a nice surprise for the crowd rather than announcing it during a press conference.

If you have to do that to relieve pressure on the captain then you picked the wrong captain.
