- "Hope" Every season starts with all teams tied for first and you just never know what team will play better than expected and go all #LUMBUS on us.
- Fantasy hockey drafts and researching who will be this years sleeper picks.
- Your Saturday night schedule for the next 9 months is completely booked up.
- Getting to see the new crop of rookies and seeing who stands out.
- This will be a full season, none of that 48-game lockout shit.
- CBC Hockey Night in Canada montages!
- Training camp battles for roster spots.
- Getting to see old, wily veterans still play even though they don't need the money, but just because they love the game.
- Rookies getting a taste of the pro life before being sent back down to junior hockey.
- Brian Burke is now the President of Hockey Operations in Calgary so he should be good for a few sound bites a week and is now in the same province as Kevin Lowe. #barnfight
- Sidney Crosby vs Alex Ovechkin is alive and well again.
- Pierre McGuire will creep you out, but you will learn about hockey players hometowns and their parents names.
- Falling asleep to hockey highlights, and waking up to them.
