Guest ZetterbergFourty Report post Posted December 27, 2009 Awesome! :beerbuddy: JLA should get a renovation for it's birthday! It would be alright I guess to go and build a nice new mega arena, but I personally would like them to just bring JLA up to par for the time being. IF that's even a possibilty. Suppose this depends on who's dimes are dropping on this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted December 27, 2009 Again, for the 100th time, I say who cares if the arena is older? How is it any different than attending a game at Fenway Park or Wrigley Field? Those ballparks are over 3 times older than the Joe, and yet nobody is calling for them to be torn down. The Joe is both the most historic and hockey atmosphere filled NHL arena in the United States. Period. Madison Square Garden hosts too many other events to be considered in that category, IMO. The only thing I'd do is create more bathroom space, as that is a problem. Other than that, the Joe is fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted December 27, 2009 Another thing - the Joe is one of the only arenas left in the NHL with a non-corperate name. Which sounds better - "Let's go down to Jobing.com Arena!!" as opposed to, "Let's go down to the Joe!" No contest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
