All of the US teams and home rinks are really great, also?
Like, 3 games in, Minnesota is the sole undefeated team and also has all of that "State of Hockey" energy and also, like, Taylor Heise and Lee Stecklein and Kendall Coyne Schofield and goalies and so many Minnesotans on its roster - the home game energy has got to be fantastic. And Boston has Hilary Knight and Jamie Lee Rattray and Hannah Brandt and is the least tested team right now, what with that weather-fuelled game reschedule, but Boston and also I think their rink is pretty? (Is it possible to have a pretty hockey rink in real life? Did I make this up, somehow?) And then New York has Jill Saulnier and Abby Roque and Ella Shelton and so many fearsome people and I have been enjoying seeing the Connecticut Whale jerseys in their stands and it feels like it would have a really good fan culture? (IDK.)
But yes, all the teams are great and more people should go see games because they are good games. It is good hockey, and, yeah, it feels like the start of something good.
