    I'm back and I want everybody's opinion!

    What gets you excited about this team? What have they done to make you believe things might be different this year? The season opener is only a couple of days away and I'm excited, but don't know why...so help me out!

      We signed core players. And they are young so they should improve upon last year.

        Ha, ha...I know...that's how I feel, but for some reason I'm excited. Why? Why do I feel this way?

          I can buy into that...for now. I'm hoping Roy takes another step forward, which could be huge for this team.

            That is really all we can buy into. I mean we didn't exactly do anything in free agency.

              I know, that's why I'm confused why I'm excited...it's just not right. Hopefully they get off to a good start or we might be in trouble again.

                New season, year old, better back up goalie to give Miller the needed rest.

                    It's a new year. Everyone is on the same level to start and anything is possible.

                      can we PLEASE stop with this "everybody's on the same level to start" crap? Just because every team starts with the same record does NOT mean they're all on the same level. Do you honestly believe the Leafs have the same chance of winning the Cup as the Red Wings or Penguins? I hope not because that's just absurd.

                        Obviously not. My point was that in the standings everyone is even (with the exception of Ottawa, Pittsburgh, and the Rangers). So excuse me for being excited about the season.

                              You want to be excited about the season, fine.

                              If you're excited because everyone is even in the standings, well, that's not legitimate. It implies all teams are equal but they're not. They all start on equal ground by rule but they do not have equal composition.

                              This comes up every time the Bills or Sabres start a new season and it's just as ridiculous every time. You can put a Scion and and Infiniti G37 at the same starting line for a race, but that doesn't make them equal.
