Official 2011-12 NHL Thread - Congratulations to the Los Angeles Kings!

Hockey is back! After a summer of tragedy, it's time to drop the puck!

Who's the Cup favorite? Who made the best off season moves? When will Crosby return? When will Doughty sign?


And to start off the season, Mike Modano officially retired yesterday.

Sean Avery claims Wayne Simmonds called him a "homophobic slur". Simmonds doesn't admit to saying it, but he doesn't deny it either.

Can we just get the season started without all this drama?

"Since Clutterbuck never has the puck and time has expired, he should have no reason to suspect that he would be checked," Shanahan said in a video explaining his decision.
Can I just call BS on this now since Clutterbuck was clearly gunning for Wisniewski's teammate and got his @$$ rightfully handed to him for his trouble? I admit that the preemptive hit deserves some time off the ice, but 8 games is way out of line for stopping someone who is known to be a dirty player.

Sean Avery has been placed on waivers. Any thoughts on who might pick him up, if anybody?

I couldn't stay awake for it. I gave up after the 1st period. I heard it was a thriller however.

Overseas games start at 1 PM EDT today.
