It's not exactly that I didn't know anything about hockey before coming to Vancouver, but almost. Swiss guys know more than me about French hockey...
I went to one game to try, because this is something you have to do when you're here I think. I wasn't sure I would appreciate it because me and sports... well, we're not really friends... But I surprised myself. I mean, I'll never be a fan who has to watch every game, to know all the players and everything about everything, but once in a while, why not!
As a Vancouverite for a few months, you have to support the Canucks... and luckily this season seems good for them. I particularly appreciate the mood in the city on days when there's a game, people seem united and it doesn't end in fight - or I've never heard of it.
Have a look at this video :
I'm not really interested in hockey (or any other sport in fact) but I think this is a big part of the Canadian culture and I'm glad to have had the opportunity to discover it.
