    I'm gonna go with 8 games. Gets a minor break for a clean history, but far from a slap on the wrist because it was an ugly, reckless offense.

      To be honest, though, I've long lost interest in the NHL compared to where I used to be. More involved in the college game.
      Nice! I used to go to a lot of their games when I lived in NYC. A certain ex gopher used to leave me tickets

        I'm still a free agent fan after the North Stars left. I just haven't really found a team I fully enjoy watching.

          I did. Pavel Bure and the Canuck's. Hate the Canuck's now but that was my team. Still ticked the Rangers knocked them off.

            I pretty much gave up on the NHL after the North Stars left town. When the Wild were announced I got a little excited, but then they announced the coach and I just didn't want to pay to watch trap hockey. So a college fan is all I am now, with a mere passing interest in the NHL.

              Well, neither did Brent. There's no way anyone actually fully enjoyed watching that boring *** 90's-2000's Devils hockey.

                He enjoys Michigan Tech hockey. What's the difference?

                  When he got hooked on Tech hockey, I'll give you that. It was bad, boring hockey. Little different style now.

                      I ignore the Islanders for 3 weeks and they go from dead last to 2 points out of the playoffs.

                          Claude Julien just got fired from the Bruins, I think. IIRC, the Bruins have gone on to win a bunch of games after the change.

                            Bruins fire a guy and the Canadians hire him, that is going to be awesome.

                              When the North Stars left I refused to 'adopt' another NHL team. I simply couldn't understand getting emotionally vested in anything else given what the North Stars meant. Since I had already been a Gophers fan since I can remember existing it helped lessen the sting a bit.

                              I have since slowly grown on the Wild because they're the hometown team and I could attend games when I still lived in MN. But they'll never hold the same pull the North Stars did because they too were a team I fell in love with at a very young age.

                              If the Vikings/Twins left you could bet your *** I would not adopt another NFL/MLB team and I find the concept patently absurd. Especially when someone goes "front-runner" with the bit. Even if I someday migrated to another major metro area I would not find myself more than a fringe fan that paid attention and probably attended games - especially the NHL.

                              To each their own of course.
