A Sens fan from Albany?!!? How'd you become a Sens fan, as opposed to a team located closer to you?

I am from England...and hockey is Canada sport. So, having no other allegences (? I'll have to figure out that spellchecker, hmmm) I was able to actually choose my team. I would have chosen the Flames....but they are west coast and I don't have a hope in heel of ever getting to see them play regularly (well until I get Centre Ice!), but only because I hated John Tortorella during the Cup finals....which was my first real introduction to the NHL. But I had alll the lockout to pick my team....and when it cam down to it, both me and my boyfrined both liked the Sens.
I go to River Rats games pretty much every week....which is why I kinda began to like the Devils (despite their treatment of their minor league team)....and I guess I am now going to have to start looking into the Canes....but the Sens are my number one, I just like them....dunoo why, can't really explain it.

That explanation worked well for me. Thinking back, I don't know why I questioned you about it, since I live in Toronto and I'm a Sabres fan.
BTW...have you met LoveThoseRats from the Devils board? I think she's a big Rats fan from Albany too! At least she used to be from Albany...

I'd imagine you are somewhat unpopular in those parts....I want to go to Toronto at some point, but perhaps I'll go in the off season. Leaf country during hockey season might be a little too much for me.

I'm very much looking forward to visiting Toronto during hockey season so I can roundly cheer for whomever the Leafs play the night I'm there - provided it's not Pittsburgh.

I can see it now - when the Slugs, er, the Sabres go into enemy arenas the fans will be armed with salt...

Leaf country during hockey season might be a little too much for me. Off season would be better -- much nicer weather...more to do outside, attractions to see.... But you could always try going to a Leafs game in disguise and try not to blow your cover by rubbing it in their faces when they lose. The NHL won't like that. Fans melting the ice with salt... The NHL should force them to go back to their original logo as the main logo and not the alternate one to prevent that from happening.

No way in hell I'd ever got to a game in the ACC....how'd I ever get tickets? Plus, Ottawa is about the same distance, and I'd much rather go there. Have been to Buffalo twice though....saw the Leafs in Nov and the Sens in April. The NHL won't like that. Fans melting the ice with salt... The NHL should force them to go back to their original logo as the main logo and not the alternate one to prevent that from happening. So the plan would work then.....salt at the ready, pass it on.
