Hi everybody, I'm 19, I'm a student in college, and I love hockey! It's by far my favorite sport. The Colorado Avalanche are my favorite team, followed closely by the Pittsburgh Penguins. I've been a huge fan of both teams since 2001, when Patrick Roy (my favorite player of all time) led the Avs to the Cup and when Mario Lemieux (also my favorite player of all time) led the Penguins to the Eastern conference finals after coming out of retirement. That was such an awesome year... I'm also Russian, so of course I cheer for Russia's hockey team, the current back-to-back IIHF World Championship winners! :D (Quiet you, I'm trying to forget the Olympics ever happened, hehe).
