I dont like it. Its a baseball stadium. A historic one nonetheless. Lets have the final game played there a baseball game.

Besides, who gives a rats ass about hockey?

If I wasn't such a raging alcoholic I would try and get to this. Sounds like a blast! Players loved it in Buffalo last year, as did fans. That would be awesome to see!!!

The only blasphemous aspect of this is that it won't be against the Islanders.

Jim Carr: Hi, Jim Carr again. Denis, I know that some in our audience don't know the finer points of hockey. Could you tell them, for example, what is icing?
Denis Lemieux: Well, um, icing happen when the puck come down, bang you know, before the other guys you know. Nobody there, you know. My arm go comes up then the game stop then start up.
Jim Carr: I see. What is high-sticking?
Denis Lemieux: High-sticking happen when the guy take the stick, you know, and he go like that
[high-sticks Jim Carr]
Denis Lemieux: you know. You don't do that.
Jim Carr: You don't do that?
Denis Lemieux: Oh no, never, never.
Jim Carr: Why not?
Denis Lemieux: Against the rules. You know, you're stupid when you do that. Just some English pig with no brains, you know.
Jim Carr: Uh, what is slashing?
Denis Lemieux: Slashing is um, like that
[demonstrates on Jim Carr]
Denis Lemieux: you know.
Jim Carr: Mm-hmm. And there's a penalty for that?
Denis Lemieux: Yeah and for the trip also, you know like that
[demonstrates]
Denis Lemieux: . And for hook like this
[demonstrates]
Denis Lemieux: . And for spear, you know, like that.
[demonstrates]
Denis Lemieux: You do that, you go to the box, you know. Two minutes, by yourself, you know and you feel shame, you know. And then you get free.

laugh if you want you fat kid in a chocolate store, but you know as well as me that an outdoor game in NY should feature the Rangers vs. the Islanders.

Hockey should never be played in a baseball stadium, unless its some half assed stadium in california or something. then, who gives a shit.

Why not? Why can't they? It's a sporting venue. It hosted football. Hell the place has hosted rock concerts before, why not hockey?
