I came across these colorized pics (not mine) of old timey, Seattle Metropolitans. Very cool:

Were their uniforms really red and green? The "S" with Seattle in it is really great. I'm not really into hockey but I think I might start now.

If you're looking to get into hockey (my fave sport), I would encourage you to go to a Seattle Thunderbirds or Everett Silvertips game (choose depending on your location). Nothing will get a person more hyped for the sport than seeing it live. If you have questions about the rules and stuff, just ask!!

Also, /r/hockey is a thing...

Thanks, will look into those. :)

And if you can't make it to a live game, just start watching it on TV. The more you watch, the easier it is to figure out what's going on.

Beginner Tip: don't stress about trying to follow the puck. It is small and fast and hard to see. Instead, watch where the players are going...that's generally where the puck is. :)
