Nice. 

Plus it worked out for you, the Blues beat the Kraken 3-2 and remain undefeated.

Two other games on Tuesday...Florida starts their run for a repeat with a victory over the Bruins, and the Utah Hockey Club gets a win in their franchise debut, defeating the Blackhawks 5-2 at the Delta Center.

Bit of an offensive start to the season! Eight goals for the Vegas Golden Knights in a 8-4 win against Colorado.  Rangers, Jets, and Flames all scored 6 goals and got season opening victories.  Montreal did not match the scoring, putting up one goal against Toronto, but enough to get the win.  All of those teams now only need to win 81 more in a row to have an undefeated regular season!!

I'm so glad hockey is back

Minnesota Wild win their season opener! A 3-2 victory at home over the Blue Jackets.  I do not have high expectations for the Wild this season, they are likely a borderline playoff team.  They missed the playoffs last season and what is probably best-case scenario for this year is making the playoffs but having another first round exit. 

Other winners on Thursday were Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, LA Kings, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, and the now 2-0-0 Utah Hockey Team, the only franchise in the league that has never lost. 

Every team has now played at least one game.
