Much like Patrick, I was also at an NHL preseason game this week.
Boston gave Malcolm Subban (PK's little brother) his first professional start in goal, and Detroit responded by bringing Datsyuk, Alfredsson, Kronwall, Frazen, Abdelkader, etc.
It wasn't ever fair, poor kid gave up 8 goals.
Next game I'll be going to is Syracuse Crunch (Tampa's AHL affiliate) opening night in a few weeks. I am so pumped.
