So this year has been a difficult year to be a hockey fan so far. With the
NHL lockout, there hasn't been very much hockey to watch on TV except for
reruns on the NHL network. Last Friday was fun though; I went to my first
college hockey game of the year. I saw my favorite college team, Boston College
play Merrimack. Nothing more fun to watch than BC coming back from a 3-0 deficit
to win the game 4-3. This game is just a great example of why hockey shouldn’t
be overshadowed by sports like football and basketball. In hockey a team is
never really out of the game and the games are always interesting to watch. And
although goal scoring is fun to watch, hockey is one of the only sports that
can be fun to watch even when the teams aren’t scoring. A low scoring hockey
game is almost more fun to watch because the teams are so evenly matched and
they are going at each other with everything they have. I think that hockey
players have to give the most effort than athletes of other sports. So I want
to know what hockey games you may have seen lately, and what your favorite
college or NHL teams are.

watching college hockey sounds really good and i will be sure to substitute it for watching the NHL.
Hopefully the lockout ends soon! I cant wait to finally start watching the Bruins again!
