No game day thread yet!?
All right -- it's here, the start of the regular season. We're in Moncton to start things off. Both teams with some missing players due to NHL camps (I thought the league started later to avoid this?).
Per the Cats board:
Cats will be without Barbashev and Tkachev. Eagles are without Brassard, Bishop, Pelletier and McIntyre
Any idea who would be backing up Sullivan? He did get the last win in preseason and think he played a bit in Russia.
Hope we have a strong start to what people are saying should be an exciting, promising season.
Go Eagles!!!!

Kind sucks that the free stream isn't working on opening night.

Kind sucks that the free stream isn't working on opening night. Definitely not making a good impression.

Definitely not making a good impression. My thoughts exactly. Obviously there will be hiccups with anything new but to fumble on the night where most teams open their season and a lot of people want to take advantage/preview the new broadcast, yikes!

Try right now, I'm seeing two people applaud at center ice so I think it's been fixed.

Quality picture but they just keep zooming in so much that you miss half the play.

Pretty slow/sloppy period which is expected on opening night. Nice feed by Svechnikov. Boucher and Brunelle I thought looked solid in the first frame.

Pierre Luc Dubois and Evengy Svechnikov seconds apart make it 3-0.
