Oh how I missed hockey. The season always starts at the perfect time of the year. The weather is almost perfect. It isn’t quite that busy time of the year at work yet (for most people). Pumpkin everything. And of course a frozen, black, vulcanized piece of rubber hits the ice all across the continent. It’s truly amazing.
The Rangers open their season tonight in Chicago to take on the defending champion Chicago Blackhawks. It seems like the Rangers always open against a team with a banner raising, and we will need to sit through one before puck drop tonight as well.
