It's ok, I'm sure he'll get rounded up, told not to do that again, and be out and about in no time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's clearly disenfranchised, we need to do what we can to help him in his time of need. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seagoal Posted October 6, 2023 Author Share Posted October 6, 2023 My teammate just invited me to Canadian Thanksgiving: "This Sunday evening. Dinner around 5 or 6. Same as American thanksgiving just more polite and we watch hockey." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG. “Wear”…? Canadian thanksgiving is traditionally a no-clothing affair (except for the mandatory toque or hockey helmet). Can’t believe they didn’t tell you that; could have saved you a lot of stress, worrying what to wear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seagoal Posted October 10, 2023 Author Share Posted October 10, 2023 I really enjoy Kevin Weekes on ESPN commentary. Obviously his goalie insider stuff is great, but his personality and style is just fun and exciting. He's so good at his job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EilaOG30 Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 (edited) Also interesting that apart from Detroit, the original six teams are 2-6 and at least double the price of Detroit tickets.

I think recent economic state and the population has to do with that. I had to look and the population of Detroit has been declining since the 90s from 1M to 630K.

Bet ya that 80%+ of people attending Panthers games are fans of the visitor teams. Same with Arizona. Speaking of Arizona, funny to see them so high. Before they changed arenas they were barely ahead of Florida. NHL really trying to capitalize using a NCAA arena lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerd31 Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 My FiL was a 25-year season ticket holder for the Flyers and gave them up two seasons ago. Now he just takes us all to the Black Friday game. Last year he got us Shift4 Club access tickets and we spent more time in the lounge there eating the free food than we did at our seats watching the game. The past few Flyers games I've been two the last couple seasons have been the lowest energy and most depressing professional sports games I've ever been to, and I grew up on Long Island going to Nassau Coliseum to see the Islanders play like ass. $50 is too much even for the best seats at Wells Fargo for a Flyers game.

MTH Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 I wouldn't take free Flyers tickets. Why? Still $30 to park plus whatever you buy inside. I don't even watch them on tv for free, why now pay to? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even watch them on tv for free, why now pay to? They’re such a boring team to watch. I only watch games when there’s no other ones on, and with ESPN there’s almost always another game on so I’m rarely watching Flyers games.

WillyGrips13 Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Ullmark looks lumbering in his movement. Lehner is kind of like that. They look like beer leaguers. They’re effective, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
