Sweet, were are you sitting? How much premium did you pay?

Rounder

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.

jupitersolo

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

lucky. I'm on the waiting list, but didn't win the "lottery" for this game.

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????

I notice this as well when Caps played them. It was said that w/o the talent they had and the owner not paying to get some, because the team is strapped for cash.

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????

Yumcha

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.

Moog-Type-S

+50 shots on Quick....and he get the SO. Amazing!

Kings did not play their best game, but somehow got 5 goals.

Yumcha

Because, they exposed Howard and the overrated Wings?



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.

Dion is back. Leafs will win in a laugher.

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

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

That was John Feinstein talking out of his ass. He "writes" about hockey once in ten years.

Yumcha

^ Ah. Truthfully, I don't think Marty would be the Caps' solution for the Cup.

jupitersolo

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.

Yumcha

You guys need a Toews.

Yumcha

...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...

Yumcha

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.

Yumchah, don't you have Rose's ass to kiss over the NBA thread?

Does it matter?

Should be interesting. JR co hosts the sports morning show here once or twice a week and is very critical of how boring a personality Crosby is. JR and Ovie's personalities should more than make up for it.

Sturm cleared all the medical evaluations....deal is now final....he's on the plane to meet the Kings in St. Louis.
