Foreign Hockey leaues

Post by eme »

This could be in form of a poll, but i decided not to put it as a poll, since i dont like them.

So, anyways, since we seem to have lot of people from different countries, one thing crossed my mind. Have any of you been to a foreign hockeyleague hockey match? If so, how was it different from your local hockey league, any difference between skill etc.

As for myself, i've never been to one, but i'd very much like to. NHL match would be a great experience, and i'd also like to visit some elitserien (swedish league) match.

The only games I've seen have been EIHL games in the UK. I was quite devastated because I had to return from Finland the week the hockey season started. I wish I could have seen one of the Tampere teams in action :(

EDIT: Tervetuloa The Blue Linelle :)

I've only been to SEL games and some five international ones.

It would be awesome to visit a game at the Joe Louis Arena, though. :)
