This is the hot topic at the rinks probably around the globe ... the NHL lockout !
So i have already seen that a bunch of Russian skaters are going back to their roots to play in the prestigious KHL which in my mind is the 2nd best league in the world . Not too sure if any skaters are going to play in Czech Extraliga or DEL ( Germany ) would be great if they did .
Heading off to Europe in 9 days so you can guess that i will be going to watch a ton of hockey games it is only natural . We might end up going to see about 10 pro games ... 2 in Berlin, 2 in Munich, 1 in Prague ( KHL ) , 1 in Bratislava , 1 in Vienna , 1 in Plzen and Budjevice ... who knows where else i will watch hockey ! Most of those games are European Trophy games , i have never been to any of those games . Basically it is a tournament with tons of games look it up http://www.facebook.com/europeantrophy ....
No doubt that i will get to watch more hockey over there then there will be over here , which is sad ... let's all hope that the NHL figures their stuff out soon and it is not a long year for all of us to miss NHL hockey . Heck i know guys in Malaysia that will be jonesing to watch a Penguins game , chaps in Sheffield that will miss their Devils ... it will effect all of us globally .
I will feel the pain everyone back home is feeling while i am watching all these NHL skaters in Europe :)
