    Any tips on ways to tolerate the NBC media?

    Looking @ that eye chart of a schedule the Hawks are on more that both Pitt and Washington you know the team that won that silver cup thingy. Plus why does Philly make it on 17 times oh wait Comcast is based in Philly and owns NBC. Man really sucks to be a team out west based on those numbers presented in the chart

    Tickets at LCA Holy Smokes Batman!!

    Was looking at the schedule and ticket prices to budget for my annual trek north to see a game. Last year I paid around 170 per ticket for seats in section 120 row 14 for a game against the Canes in Feb. I figure I get back to see friends and family and a game once a year so I am willing to spend a little more for my seats and plus I budget for it for a few months. Looking at prices/games and I am sure glad I have that new stent in my heart otherwise I might be on the floor writhing in pain. Tickets are showing in the same area around 400 bucks on stubhub/ticketmaster etc. Is this due to the season not starting yet and people just putting numbers up there? I am going to hold off and pick a couple of games and see where prices land and it might not be a trip this year if these prices keep holding. Last game of the year against Buffalo seats are over 250

    Tickets at LCA Holy Smokes Batman!!

    there fixed it for ya in bold. But as far as the ticket prices go I budget about 50 a month starting in Aug to cover my tickets @ a game. Most times I stay at friends house on Friday Saturday night is Troy Marriott on points, flights are on miles plus rental car is usually fairly cheap or on points. If all those expenses weren't covered by points for me a guessimate to see a game with GF 350 tickets avg 600 2 flights and thats if Delta feels like not crushing me 350 2 nights @ hotel 125 Rental car 120 min for beer 6 @ 20 might be a low estimate ... Not including food outside the arena So has potential to be over well over 1500 to see a game when the points die my seeing games will cease until the Wings are contenders. At which point the numbers will go up dramatically but then again I would be buying playoff tickets but if i start budgeting 50 per month the next 5 years.......

    Zetterberg's status in 2 years. MOD WARNING PAGE 6

    Whew it's Helene reporting it ..so can't be true. But man if it is and he hasn't been able to train fully that is a bad scenario. Plus last year he was missing practice just to play. Gotta think his odds go up that he goes on LTIR at start of season if not the whole time. Back injuries suck!! I am still trying to recover from 2 bulging disks I munged up in July somehow. Can't imagine trying to play through the pain. Z is a total bad arse for playing this long. We just might see some more youngins this year. On the job training boys!!

    Dylan Larkin Signs ($6.1M x 5 yrs)

    So when he is 28 he will command a hefty price tag if he delivers for the next 5 good idea on his part. Still could get an 8 year Super Payday deal and finish his career here. Sure hope the cap keeps going up cause we might need it...

    Tickets at LCA Holy Smokes Batman!!

    Just an update on the situation called LCA thanks Learn2 for the number. I was told single game tickets don't go on sale till Aug 24 so not sure how the prices for seats are sitting out there currently maybe season tickets and packages? LW while you are talking ticket prices the additional insult is the fees Ticketmaster/StubHub etc charge for passing tickets through. So you buy a ticket at X price add in X% to get the bloody thing pure pure ripoff but you really don't have a choice if you want to see concert, game etc.

    agreed not happening but it could be done if Bergevin has taken his meds or not that day Kenny calls. Opens some space for the youngins for sure.

    I don't think we can lose on anyone of these picks unless Kenny falls flat on his face and trades back to the 3rd round.

    Tavares and Trotz and Number 6 either offensive/defensive potential stud(see how I avoided any arguement?) I would rehang my shrine to Kenny
  18. Yeah this wouldn't cause a bit of turmoil in locker room. Come to us Karlsson and be protected by the Swedish mafia!!! Don Zetterberg would not allow this to happen without consequences!!! I personally think the other 2 are hotter than her anyways so she needs her wive's girlfriend's suite pass revoked.

    Perhaps Jack and Squat are the next coming of the Bruise Brothers? Or a defensive pair that one "Jacks" the opponent finished with a "Squat" Or are they WWE rasslers?

    Personally rather have Big Ras on this list vs Kovalchuk. I would like to see that young core start to jell for future runs.

    and if things go sideways be able to set up into the head coach position if needed. Blash gets fired in Dec, Bylsma takes over takes Detroit to the playoffs similar to when Sullivan took over in Pit Faces Sullivan in the Conf finals Wings win Pierre, Eddie and Doc's heads explode.

    Although having the night off let me watch the NBA finals and laugh at the Cavs. Gotta suck getting owned in the same way they did last year in game 3. Almost as bad as us vs the Bolts except I am emotionally invested in the Wings and cuss words would have been uttered.

    How I read that article was you want your spot from last year EARN it. You want that spot then BEAT the guy who has it now. Basically compete compete compete vs yeah the spot is mine and people mailing in the effort. Only time will tell I guess whether this is good or bad.
