The NHL’s 2012 season is back and here to stay for as long as the Mayans and Roland Emmerich see fit. A fresh hockey season germinates, blooming into new false hopes for dead markets (Phoenix), unrealistic expectations (Toronto), and the sound of oxygen sucking as deflated Sharks fans begin to breathe again — how exciting! What more can we expect? Well, let’s take a look:
The sub-dwelling Flames have reclaimed their corpse-like position in the basement of the Western Conference with a comfortable 1-2 record — nothing like a good headstart.
After three games David Legwand is leading the league in scoring — could you imagine if...wait, no, don’t bother.
Which players will have their eyes rolled back and minds wiped etch-a-sketch style by blind-side hits this year? And how long will Crosby milk this concussion to sit at home and play NHL 12?
Also: How many games will it take to run Craig Anderson out of Ottawa? Will Andrei Markov walk again? How will Canucks fans blame Luongo for the Sedin’s shortcomings? What’s the over-under on fires during Montreal riots? Oh the suspense!
