New rules, a fan-friendly game, saner contracts � they�re all part of the NHL�s post-lockout renaissance. For the first time in league history, all 30 teams are in action on Opening Night. Canadian hockey fans have looked forward to the evening ever since the NHL and its players signed a new collective bargaining agreement in July, ending a long and bitter labour dispute. �Canadian hockey fans are the greatest fans,� Ottawa Senators defenceman Chris Phillips says. �They may be upset at how it all went down last year, but they�re still fans of the game and want to watch it.� Every fan in all 15 buildings tonight will be hand�ed a replica Stanley Cup as a souvenir. In truth, it�s an olive branch, masquerading as Stanley. But only one city will get to raise a Stan�ley Cup banner tonight. The Tampa Bay Lightning and their fans have waited more than a year for the traditional celebration. They defeated the Calgary Flames in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup final in June 2004. The NHL hasn�t played a game since due to the lockout of players by the league�s owners. Continued Please see HOCKEY A4 After 519 days of silence, hockey fans ready to roar In Toronto Randy Turner TORONTO � A Japanese couple is the first to score: Two front�row seats to the Toronto Maple Leafs season opener tonight against the Ottawa Senators. But when approached by an out-of-town reporter on their purchase, on the street outside the Air Canada Centre, a language barrier was soon erected. �They�re my customers from Nagano,� said a man called Johnny, who conducted the sale. �You�re making them nervous.� Johnny has been a pretty busy boy. Hawking hockey tickets in Toron�to, the mecca of the Canadian game, can be a profitable endeavour, what with the fanaticism for the Maple Leafs. But starve the nation of Tie Domi and Mats Sundin for an entire season, then open the doors, and the blue and white will be crashing through. But Johnny, not in the mood to provide his full name, isn�t so sure. �It�s been 519 days, right?� said Johnny, who clearly has been keeping score. �That�s the last game they played here. The (East�ern) Conference semifinal against Philadelphia, May 5. The Leafs lost 3-2 in overtime.� Continued Please see TURNER A4 Puck drops on TV Tonight�s return of hockey is as close as your television: . Ottawa Senators at Toronto Maple Leafs, 7 p.m., TSN .
