Kira 451 Report post Posted September 11, 2009 I won't be home for the first one. I'll be watching the boys in TC. Much better alternative than watching the Islanders and Canucks for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Might be interesting to see the battle of the top goal-scorers on each team... John Tavares vs Mikael Samuelsson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
