Been awhile, haha. But no, that was for the bleediest nosebleeds. The lower bowl prices are still criminal.F Me In The Brain said:
Is that $2 in real money?PJ_Soul said:The Canucks are so desperate to try and get back all the fans they treated so poorly that they are now offering tickets for $16 CAD.
Sorry, bad joke.
Is that for a decent seat? Damn, hockey tickets are so pricey here. Want to sit lower bowl? Gonna cost you!
Anyway.... as a Canucks person, I don't even belong in thread. How embarrassing.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata0 -

not a huge fan of hockey during the year but I know the playoffs are good.
I grew up in columbus and all I'm hearing is how the 1st round matchups are incredibly fucked up...I think columbus and pittsburgh are #3 and #2....and the winner could end up playing #1? fucked up.
go blue jackets.If I had known then what I know now...

Yeah, the playoff format since the division realignment is so fucking stupid. NHL really needs to fix that. Go back to 1-8 seeding for each conference.Wobbie said:not a huge fan of hockey during the year but I know the playoffs are good.

They are trying to get back to the rivalries. It is a gauntlet -- if you keep watching year over year Wob, you will see how most of the teams are both gutted by the time the SCFinals roll around.
I go back and forth....I grew up in New England and it seemed like the Bs and Habs faced each other every other year in the playoffs and it was glorious.
That stated....seems a tough reward for a great season to have to play a top team.
Went to the bar near my hotel? Fucking ESPN on.
Bought a bottle of Ketel and am in the hotel room flipping channels, just like I would be at home.The love he receives is the love that is saved0 -

I don't know if you were joking but the reason they are called Leafs is apparently because it was in honor of a Canadian military regiment during world war one named Maple LeafsHesCalledDyer said:I've never understood why it isn't Maple Leaves.

Sort of being facetious, but also curious as well. That's pretty cool. The Blackhawks were also named after a WWI infantry division.fife said:

Definitely need to go back to the 1-8 format. Division rivalries are made by playing... wait for it... intra-division regular season games.Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250

They're killing my Wild. Up 2 - 0 and going back home. I always get so disappointed in the playoffs. Typical Minnesota fold, no matter what sport. We assembled such a good team 4 years ago, but have done nothing.ledvedderman said:It's a hopeless situation...0 -
