I'd save Wings, Canadiens, and Leafs for one trip when you have a little extra time. Montreal, especially, is such an amazing city to be in as a tourist. If you're late 20's like me, you're just backing out of the club scene. But they have some great night life for all walks.

Leon Draisaitl for ROY.Flames sign Sam BennettI see him playing preseason and the minimum amount in NHL before being sent down to Adirondack.
I want to see United Center and the Shark Tank sooner than later.

That's a good point. Hockey HOF in Toronto as well.
Atmosphere at the Tank is pretty damn wild. Hit it for a Kings game if possible. United Center for sure a must.

You think Tampa was bad, try Phoenix
Was there over Christmas about 5 years ago with the fam, and we decided to go to a Coyotes game. 10 minutes before puck drop we walk up and we were able to get tickets 2 rows behind the bench
still to this day the best seats I've ever had for a sporting event

Tried so hard to get some of my friends to go to a Tampa game several months back. The Texas Rangers were playing the Rays and the Stars were playing the Lightning the same weekend I was in town from Dallas with work friends. Tried to get a double-header going with games in back-to-back nights but ol' girl from work that is dating my buddy from work wasn't having it. Almost made a solo play to go to both.
Still trying to see games in other cities (even if the Stars aren't playing)...got a prime opportunity with this current job, just need to find some people that are down to go to games with me (almost went to one in Columbus, but work friends were being dumb and didn't wanna go out in the cold).
Deadset, hit me up if you end up coming through Dallas. Definitely wanna buy you a few beers if you come through.

Unless he gets the Radulov treatment, Kuznetsov is going to be the ROY.

Chill. I dont believe that for a second. Although he clearly has the teammates to do so. Druin >
I know you think hes the next Malkin I jus dont see it yet. Hes better than i thought though and gunna be a big time player jus not the best overall rook.

I know your whole Calgary and Edmonton thing, but seriously, I really like Leon and Michael Dal Colle out of all the prospects in this class.
Yandle, Ekman-Larsson, and Boedker are worth the show.You think Tampa was bad, try Phoenix

Know the feeling. "Babe, wanna hit the Trop? Always wanted to see the Rays." Her answer, No one goes or cares. Well thanks.

Yeah I got Leon being the best out of the group too, but I'm happy with Bennett as well. I think Reinhart is gonna be the weakest of the top 5

HOF is a fun time. Didnt see a game while I was visiting Toronto tho
On the other hand, Montreal had the best environment I've ever seen at a hockey game. Live band to play during stoppages, playing against the Leafs, and it was hockey night in Canada. Even more fun than my trip to the Joe.

you didn't miss anything.
the leafs environment is ******, seeing a hockey game there isn't particularly interesting or exceptional. you can skip that.
Montreal on the other hand is like a pilgrimage to mecca.

Montreal slowly destroying their relationship with the biggest star the franchise has seen since Patrick Roy.
2016 PK Subban unrestricted free agency should be fun.

Not sure why they're ******* around with him. If I heard correctly, they are more than 3 mil apart. SMH. They want to have him make Marc Staal money...Subban's camp, for good reason, sees otherwise.
Oh well, I hope this plays out the way I want and he's in a Caps sweater in 2 seasons.
*All jokes aside, like I said before, I would LOVE to see PK in a city like LA/CHI/NYC. This man SHOULD be the face of the league. NHL has something great here and should market him beyond belief. You want to expand your game to different groups of people *cough* minorities *cough*? PK is the guy who should be leading that charge.

Exactly. They dont want us signing up n numbers... Black players are flourishing. Pk. Iggy. Simmer.emer. ward etc. Said it when the bridge deal was signed. Hell never get the respect he deserves particuarly from that organization he needs to let his love affair with the fans out of this and bounce. Not gunna harp on race issue but the guy jus won a norris then took u to the ECF... What else so u want? No reason in the world hes not a top 5 paid defenseman n the league.
