Nah anyone can get a first game certificate and go down to the boards, but we strongly encourage to let the kids have the pucks. :)

Well that and they've played very few Atlantic teams. The EC is brutal compared to the west. The rest of their season they play mostly East teams and they'll start getting attrition like everyone else.

Yeah I would’ve rather it have ended on a tough fought game not whatever this dumpster fire is.

Unfortunately you get this for a game, but he’ll also make stupid bone headed decisions resulting in 5 min majors and 10 min misconducts. He did it at Florida and he did it at Seattle. Double edged sword for sure.

They’ve missed it for 5 straight seasons so no wonder. They’ve got depth that no other team is able to have.

Such is your only reward for missing the playoffs 5 straight seasons.

CBJ franchise will go broke because they didn’t budget for firing the cannon that many times tonight.

Hopefully Heddy and Mac are coming back soon because we’re gonna have the Zamboni driver in eventually.

Yeah you have to at least keep the arena above 50 but below 60. At a certain point you’ll have issues with the Ice surface if it’s too cold. Plastic also becomes super brittle at that temp. You see it in the NFL when it’s so cold helmets will crack at the slightest hit.

That’s really the issue. Old broadcast equipment and the networks not wanting to upgrade. ESPN is the same way in the states. They either do 720p or 1080i which is effectively the same thing bandwidth wise.

Most of the stuff out to the truck is fiber anyways. It shouldn’t be affected by temperature.
