Hey @Mike, see you are finally giving up those Flyers to join with the Penguins! Glad to see you've accepted who's the better team. Lol

Nooooooooooooooo!

Nooooooooooooooo!

Why? What's wrong with the penguins in Pittsburg?
Much easier to control them than this forum.

 

[Mike]

I suppose I could sabotage them. Last place in the division is what I'm aiming for, right?

I dunno your joke but aren't penguins better than flyers anyway

You can't do worse than the Flyers regardless of how much you try!

That's the joke basically. I'm a Penguins fan (from Pittsburgh) and he's a Flyers fan (from eastern PA). It's been a joking rivalry since I've joined the staff.

A Scottish hockey fan, nice. I much prefer the American sports, difficult to find any NBA fans over here, though.

Just don't piss Emery off!

What is the ice hockey scene like in Scotland?

 

[Mike]

There are teams. The league is the EIHL: http://www.eliteleague.co.uk/ To be honest, the quality isn't great, especially if you're used to the NHL. But it's still a good time if you want to see a game.

To be fair, that's pretty much the case in any of the European leagues. As an example, SM-Liiga (Finnish): http://liiga.fi/pelaajat/24622477/kuusela-kristian

Not as far as I'm aware. There's a bit of rink size discussion here, which shows that they actually aren't even all the same (at least in 2010).
