    “Watching hockey could affect fans with heart disease, Canadian study says. The study found that in some cases for those watching, either live or on TV, their heart rate doubled.”

    Watching the Avs sure does have an affect on the heart rate. Especially if they manage to be tied or have a 1 goal lead in the third period; you’re just waiting for that one mistake that costs them the game.
