Pour Me One for the New Season

 Yes, in almost one hour, the NHL returns for the 2021 dash for the Stanley Cup.

I'm not sure who is excited more? Could it be me, or Mrs. Stereo Lounge, who has had to endure me staring at the calendar ever since the end of the 2020 Cup final?

Probably her, as I have been a real pain without hockey. But no more. The Lounge will have all three games from NBCSN tonight. Tomorrow morning, the two games from Canada will be on replay behind the bar. 

The Lounge will be paying particular attention to the Los Angeles Kings, as per usual, but will have keen interest on the Vegas Golden Knights and Colorado Avalanche in the West Division. In the North, the Montreal Canadiens, Toronto Maple Leafs and Calgary Flames are my picks to click. Added bonus, the Habs en francais on select nights. Love the cry of "lance... a BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT!" from the booth at TVA's Le Super Soiree.

In the Central, you need to stretch the regional concept to focus on the Carolina Hurricanes and Tampa Bay Lightning. And in the East, I have the Boston Bruins, Philadelphia Flyers and Pittsburgh Penguins on the nightly watch list.

My Bud Light red light has fresh batteries, the snacks are being prepared now and Mrs. Stereo Lounge is actually happy for me. Drop the puck.
