Does anyone here play hockey at all? I'm thinking about joining a local adult rec beginner league and I'm wondering if anyone has experiences they want to share.


I play, actually. I haven't in about a year now, but I do when I can. Didn't start skating until I was 17 so I'm terrible at it. But I started playing floorball recently, which is like floor hockey or street hockey. Now that I can do pretty well!

If Jersey's Team can pull out a win tonight they will hopefully start a winning streak with winger Damien Brunner who has been the most electrifying devils player to watch since zach parise left .

I don't know about anyone else here, but I'm starting to warm up to the new uniforms for Dallas. They actually look like hockey uniforms instead of basketball ones. * at least to me * 8)

Yeah, and the shade of green is the original one used by the team years ago. :) Looks nice.

They're good. I like the green ones more than the white ones. I was at the game against the Capitals two weeks ago and got a free shirt and I've been wearing it quite a bit. As a Penguins fan and as one who was pulling for the Sabres in 1999, I feel incredibly dirty wearing it.

I'm just glad the jerseys look a lot better than last years.

You guys should seriously have a Northstars throwback jersey game, like during a road trip at Minnesota. People would go nuts it would be so amazing.

I like the L.A. Kings jersey of today; the colors are an homage to the Gretzky years; but their purple and gold jerseys from the pre-Gretzky era are eye-catching as well. (True fact: The reason the Kings colors were purple and gold for their first 21 years was because the team was founded by the same man who also owned the L.A. Lakers at the time- Jack Kent Cooke.)

Maybe, I remember Modano wearing the throw back jersey after the game in Minnesota.

I have a few Kings and Canucks jerseys; I do want the current Kings jersey, however. :)

I like the old purple Kings jerseys except for the fact that they're ugly as ****. Although I do have to say just black and white is kinda a bland color pallet.
