You will hear the Swedes talking to each other occasionally but that's about it. It is entertaining for fans no question. The quality of play can't compare to the NFL but who cares. As long as people want to watch it I don't see a problem with it. I think the fans here are more enthusiastic.
Hockey is like religion up here.
Everybody is a fan. In New Jersey that wasn't the case. You get recognized a lot more in public here. I don't think I hardly ever got recognized in New Jersey. But that isn't always a bad thing.
