Tonights games are on CBC so if your in most of the US and don't have the channel go find or ask someone (like Ray) for a stream.

The game is on Versus in the US. I won't be able to watch all of it, though.

Is it because of the time of the game?I actually think it sucks that the Pens have to open the season out there.Actually I think it sucks that any eastern team would have to open the season out west.10pm games suck.Let alone one that's going to start late because of opening day ceremonies.Even vice versa with a western team starting in the east.Don't like it.Work's going to start off really slow tomorrow...

Not sure why they wouldn't mention it since they've been advertising the game for the past 3 weeks...

Yeah, 10pm weeknight starts suck because I have to get up at 6am for work the next day. I didn't like the fact that they had to start out West as soon as the schedule came out. At least I won't miss Saturday or Sunday's games since Big Mac should be dressed for at least one of them.

Who's going to piss off the other team first, Lapierre or Cooke?

It says Versus when I pull it up, so I guess it's different based on where you live.

Lapierre. If the preseason is anything to go by, Cooke has been neutered. We'll see how long that lasts.

Hopefully Lappierre does something stupid and Engelland pounds the snot out of him.
