    Streaming for All NHL Playoff Games

    Crap, that makes me nervous about buying then. I travel a lot, and will be gone the entire month of May. I'd be trying to watch using random wifi connections from night clubs across the country basically... With those kind of problems, I'm not sure it's worth the risk...

    Questions from a Blue Jackets fan...

    I always park at Greektown and take the Peoplemover. Validating is easy. There's a bank of machines on the first floor inside the casino, you just stick your ticket in, it prints something on it and gives it back. Super easy. I have to say, though, the last game I went to in December, the line to get on the Peoplemover at JLA was SO long that my friends and I walked around the arena and went over to Cobo and got on there. (If you decide to go this route and want to go to Cobo, just go in the front doors and keep heading up escalators to the end. It's like the 3rd floor and all the way down.
  3. I am far too amused by this one! excellent work!

    March 26 1997

    Oh man I love that game! I remember finishing the book Blood Feud last summer and I was just dying to watch it again. I scoured the internet for days and when I finally found it, it hasn't left my computer since! I can't believe it was 12 years ago! That means I was 12! haha Also, Hi everyone! I miss the game chats! I'll be home April 5 for almost a month, so I'll join back in then

    2008 Champions Shirts

    I've been out of town since Feb 14, and will be until April 5. If I get a chance to run down to the store when I get back, and if they still have them, absolutely.

    2008 Champions Shirts

    I do not have them to sell, but I thought a lot of people here might be interested in the tip. I was at Hockeytown in Troy today, and they have a bunch of left over champs shirts on sale for $5/ea for adult sizes and $2/ea for kid's sizes. (I bought an XL youth because they didn't have adult smalls and it fits great!) I didn't know what forum to put this in, so i just guessed and thought this might be best. I know I'd appreacite the heads up, so I thought I'd share.

    2/10 GDT: Red Wings 5 at Predators 3

    Center Ice is TV or internet based, Game Center is internet based. Just quickly googling a few things, It looks like: Center Ice Online: $200 Center Ice TV: $170 Game Center: $96 Looks like center Ice TV covers regular season and rounds 1 and 2 of the playoffs. I haven't dug around enough to see what the 2 online services include as far as playoffs go. Looks like Game Center is the best deal, especially because it says you can pane 4 separate games simultaneously. I travel a lot and have considered springing for the Game Center package from time to time, but as Electrophile said, it's simply not affordable for some people. That would actually be an expense in my life that I would have to cut to buy necessary things and it sounds like it would be for her as well. Thankfully I'm in the Detroit market and only miss the FSD+ games like tonight because right now I'm cutting expenses like going to the bar to watch blacked out games, hah. Anyways if I were in her boat, I'd be relying on streams, too. A friend of mine is a wings fan in CA and does exactly that. All that said, Hello to everyone, I'm fairly new to posting here, but I've been reading for a long time. Just trying to be helpful by researching the other viewing options a bit.

    Looking for 1998 Cup victory tape

    I see you posted this a while ago, but I figured I would see if this helps you any. I don't post much, but I read the general discussion forum A LOT. I can't help you with a physical tape or anything, but I did find this link on a torrent site I frequent. http://www.nhltorrents.co.uk/details.php?i...e2acebe49876471 Description: Complete game TV broadcast of Game 4 of the 1998 Stanley Cup Final between Detroit and Washington. Includes postgame. Hope that helps you out! I haven't downloaded it, but it does say that it includes a postgame, so it may be worth a shot. I looked around quite a bit to see if posting torrent links was against any kind of rules and didnt see anything. Let me know it is and I'll remove it.

    Why does NHL.com suck so much?

    I get the scores sent to me via text after every period of every game (I travel a lot and want to keep up). I got it though Hotmail and MSN. Today I got a report of "Detroit 2 - San Jose 2 after the 3rd period". Glad I was actually home for this one, eh?!
  17. I thought of that last night, but I wanted to use an actual picture of a waterskier and not the pic of the fonz. I was going to put a sharks jersey on the waterskier, though. Because of the meaning of the term, i wanted to show the sharks playoff run has peaked and was going to go downhill and end in this round. Thanks I posted higher resolutions in one of the round 2 wallpaper threads that popped up after i originally posted that.

    No VERSUS? No Wings for Games 1 & 4

    You are my SAVIOR. Thank you a million times over! I have Versus, but after Monday I'll be out of town until mid-june, so I was worried I wouldn't be able to watch the games for the rest of the playoffs! Again, THANK YOU!
