2014-2015 Random NHL Thread

    BTW anyone see Florida almost had to put their 41 year old video assistant coach in goal last night. Both goalies got hurt and they called the NHL and that was the solution they could come up with on the fly. luckily Lunango came back into the game after being pulled because he took a puck off his head and finished the game. I'm guessing they allowed him to play with a concussion.

    3-0 Colorado in the first 10 minutes glad I decided not to deal with the Arnokd traffic and skipped this game

    I sold my tickets too cheap. Looking on Stubhub to go ahead and go and they were double what I had sold them for.
  • gerb131
    Any wknd tickets y'all willing to part with?
  • rydawg5
    Offer expired.

    With only three home games left I know I'm going to miss the next one but hopefully catch the final two of the season. BTW Rydawg what section are your season tickets in. We're thinking about section 120 if we buy them next year or. Maybe club level.

    226. I have to buy an extra season ticket for a 4 year old so it kills my budget.

    The best thing to do is to attend the "pick your seat" event. You get a good idea sitting around the arena of what you will be comfortable with for multiple games. Also, it helps you do this:

    Seat A: $2000 seat/year
    Seat B: $3000 seat/year

    By sitting in seat A, is it $1000 worse than seat B? You at least get to sit down and see what you think.

    After that, you fill out the form and those are your seats.

    Yeah we have sit pretty much everywhere this season from glass seats a couple times to the last row center ice. We were even the first row behind the CBJ bench one game. They were fun but it's a better view of the little things then the actual game. You should look into it for at least one game though because your daughter would almost be guaranteed a stick or puck from a player.

    I like the the upper level if I'm in the first 5 rows after that I'd rather be lower bowl. I go early dobt care anything about being on the jackets shoot twice side. I also wanna be high enough in the lower bowl to see the play develop or behind the goal so I can see the whole ice. I liked club too though because of the waiter service.

    How are the events for season ticket holders.

    BTW go Carolina tonight give us a better chance at the first pick please

    Have to buy a ticket for a 4 yr old?
    Yeah, I think I would pass on that......



    Anyone see where they may go to a 3 on 3 OT next year?
  • Classyposter58
    5 minutes of 3 on 3 would be amazing. I guarantee hardly any games would go to shootout upon implementation

    Def would put a premium on speed. I like the idea, and anything to get away from the shootouts.
  • sportchampps
    I kinda like the shootouts if only to see Johanson make goalies look silly.

    I'll take Kane or Datsyk over Johanson on making goalies look silly every day of the week.
  • gerb131
    Hartnell quietly having an amazing season. Had a hatty the other day.
  • TedSheckler
    I wouldn't say quietly. He was 1st Star if the week last week. Leading goal scorer in March.
  • gerb131
    Anytime the CBJ are honored it's quietly.
  • gerb131
    Cam with the hatty in Chicago 5-2. Smmfhead
  • TedSheckler
    Jackets are pretty good when they're healthy.
  • sportchampps
    Yeah a few guys are better the RyJo in the shootout but not many. I think the best guy I've seem this year has been silfverberg off the ducks. I enjoy RyJos move. He basically just pressures the goalie until they make a move and then just puts it in the net. I'm think out of the few misses he has this season 2 or 3 were off the post.
  • sportchampps
    What do you think the lines are next year when everyone's healthy. I would hate to see Dano go back down to the minors because he has been playing great. The team has to many centers though when everyone's healthy with RyJo, Dubi, Arty, Letestu, Dano, and Wennberg (who can play on the wing). LW is pretty good with Hartnell, Calvet and Folingo. RW is probably the weakest with Cam Clarkson boll Borque and troop. Defense has a solid 5 guys with Conn, Savard, Jack Johnson, Tyutin and Murray. Prout is a tough defender and getting better.

    im guessing Letestu is gone next year and I'll miss watching him each night.
  • gerb131
    Arty will prob be moved is my guess.
    4-2 winners in STL. Above 500 again...
  • sportchampps
    They have way to many forwards. Arty is so good when he's healthy I hope if he is gone they get something good for him. I've also heard people say they think because of the logjam at forward the CBJ could include a few pieces of young talent together in exchange for a big name. I would like that as long as Anderson and Dano are not included.
