We start fresh. Sure we had the preseason games to shake the cobwebs and get the balance right. Take a look at all the new names on the roster. The team has gone through a massive amount of change and only a few players remain from the past two seasons. What will the fresh blood mean for the overall performance of the team this year? For now, let's have a moment to be happy and to rejoice. Hockey is back, I feel like the universe is right in order.

This is your period one game thread. Keep it cute or put it on mute. Music after the jump.
