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.

laugh out loud Nah.. no trophy for the spring season. Got to skate with the trophy in february when we won the fall season. Even got my name on the trophy, which is pretty cool.
Our rink shares the trophy with all the different leagues, so our names aren't on it. I told our captain that we should've created one for ourselves. He didn't want to spend the $$.

It was a lot of fun skating around with a championship trophy, no matter how cheesy it is. laugh out loud

Yeah, we all share teh same trophy, but the rink puts the names of the players from the Fall/Winter Championship team on it similar to the Cup. laugh out loud

Yeah, a little cheesy, but fun. Holding the Stanley Cup is the thing all hockey playing kids dream about. Kinda cool to have a little fun with it as an adult winning a championship, even just in Beer league.

I joked that within a week span I got to hold the Stanley Keg and almost touch the Stanley Cup.

Our rink doesn't do anything special for the winners other than put the team picture on the website and give us pizza after every playoff game. It's kinda dull, actually.

Lundqvist is going to need to win this series on his own. He's going to need to score the goals too I think.

Good series. I feel badly for Lundqvist. That wasn't his fault.

So Kings & Devils. Sounds like a movie title.
