Sweet, were are you sitting? How much premium did you pay?
2008 Acura TL
200s level on the closed end of the field. Paid ~ $725 for two. Face is $149 ea. Not terrible, considering. I got a better deal than 95% of the auctions on ebay I saw in the last month. Most pairs are upwards of $1,000 for the 200s level. I coulda got a little cheaper and sat way up there but what's the point in that, can't see anything. And can't see anything if you sit close because of the boards.
Also I figure it will be a long while before I would get to go to another one of these things. I was at Buffalo, too, but got lucky on the day of the sale and got them directly off ticketmaster for like $60 ea.

Not bad, if local I would have to look at doing it.

Don't know if any one saw this from the Flyers vs the Sharks earlier in the week. Nearly a buzzer beater but not quite.

I'm watching NHL On The Fly-there is a TON of empty seats in Dallas for the Stars/Hurricanes game. But wow, Andrew Raycroft is standing on his head! What rock did he crawl out from under???
Heck, even in Detroit, there's a noticeable amount of seats unoccupied. What's up with that????

Its official the Kings acquired Sturm from Boston for future considerations. I guess Dean didn't want to pay his salary over the past week or so. ; )

I just got home from announcing our hockey game here in KC. I'm watching the Blackhawks and the Sharks on NHL Center Ice. It's frustrating because the video signal isn't the best. It's always been like that on NHL Center Ice. I'm glad to see all the games, but sometimes the audio and video signals are bad. What's up with that????

Nice game played by the Kings.
Wish I could say the same for the Hawks. Turco was ...Please just give the starting job to Crawford. He looks to be real deal.

+50 shots on Quick....and he get the SO. Amazing!
Kings did not play their best game, but somehow got 5 goals.

Saw parts of the game. Quick was pretty good in the 2nd period when the shots were a bazillion to 4 for the Brown Things.
Hope that translates to the playoffs.

Taylor Hall, bulletin board writer.
"Hopefully we can compete a lot harder (than on Sunday). Because (Toronto) is a team that, if we do, it's there for the taking," Hall reportedly said at practice on Monday.

Although, the game for tonight I'll be watching is the Pens vs. Flyers.

Some speculation that the Caps may want Brodeur...?

^ Ah. Truthfully, I don't think Marty would be the Caps' solution for the Cup.
Some hard leadership is needed, this is a young team. Also Schultz and Green have been out three games, Schultz is a best blueliner and works the special teams as well.

You guys need a Toews.

...Someone who commands the respect of an entire uber-talented run-and-gun roster...
Someone...who does not whine, does not play dirty by slew-footing the opposition, does not take dives...someone who just rolls up his sleeves, works hard, and gives up offense in the name of team defense.
What a player...that Captain Serious...

I think...if the Caps gave up Backstrom, 15 first-rounders, Carlson, and Ovechkin...Toews can be had.
Oh sure, we'll throw in Campbell.
