Personally, I've never been big fan of Flyers but now I cheer for Jagr, Voracek and Meszaros. I hope they all make significant impact on their team and Flyers will go far in the playoffs. And then I wish they will lose with Avalanche in the finals 
The team need to work on their chemistry but hey, it's the first game fo the season. That laser by Phaneuf was awesome. 
Too bad those darn Wings break the fun. 
Yup. Wpg lost big time (it didn't help there was a couple bad penalty calls, one resulting in a PPG). The Jets played really nervous for the first 10 minutes and then seemed to get better. Its easy to tell this is a growing team, but the bones are there. If the Jets make the playoffs this year it will be a miracle, and I don't really expect them to. The Jets organization has made it clear that they are in a building phase and only idiots will be disappointed in a bad season. At the end of tonights game the Jets got a standing ovation. 5-1 meant nothing to us as Winnipeggers, we got the Jets back and that's all that really matters.McQwak wrote:Yeah, all elebrations are wierd, so far.

That's probably a lie. I saw him on TV and behind him there was 4 guys in business suit who were looking pretty serious for an occasion like this. That was probably his goons.Qikdraw wrote: According to the New York Times he had asked for 14 tickets. He got 2.
I'm happy for you Winnipeg! That very well may be. I donno. I was just regurgitating what I read in NYT. I should know better. lolphilou21 wrote:That's probably a lie.

A few guys at work were at the game, they said it was simply amazing. I wish I was there.By the way, the Winnipeg crowd was awesome, loudy, intense and in the first minutes of the game very intimidating. It take some time to score that one goal but at least they scored one, which I was hoping. The standing ovation at the first face-off was awesome too!
I understand though that that first game is something really special. If one day the Nordiques are coming back to Quebec City I'll do my best to go at that opening game for sure!

But hey, what would you expect playing with a team like this? I really like Booth he is a hard working guy with alot of ambition. I hope he will be able to put up 60 pts and + seasons again.
