I have a group of 5 or 6 buddies that watch at least 2 hockey night in Canada games a month, a good deal of the playoffs and all of the Canadian team Olympic matches. We have a hockey pool that has been going for 18 years. We have made road trips to Boston on occasion. Yet we might have met to watch 1 WCH final in the last 5 years... Hockey doesn't start until the puck drops on game 1 of the NHL regular season and until the World Series is over it is all baseball.
