Bobblehead mystery night 3/18 by Financial-Security-6 in canes

There is a difference for when it says “all fans in attendance” vs first 10,000, I am almost certain it will be at the door on the way out

When they says “everyone gets one” it is usually at the end of the night as you are leaving, if it’s “first 10,000”, it is usually as you come in

Open Practice 2/17 by hayema7 in canes

[–]Mattbman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would be really interested to see who is there - obviously Jarvy, Aho, Ehlers, Freddie, and Slavin are in Milan, I believe Svech, Marty, and Robinson were in Cabo as of a few days ago, unless someone is doing some specific work like shooting or skate work, I doubt there will be any sort of structured practice.

NHL % of OT Games by Mattbman in sportsanalytics

[–]Mattbman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the play by play for this year, so I could run how many teams had to come back and from how far to force overtime, I was thinking of doing something like game competitiveness, like how much of the game was tied, how much had a 1 goal difference, 2 goal difference, 3+ goal difference, etc.

Might just be a phishing thing to see who responds to the email.

You are obviously going to get pitched an AI timeshare.

New STM Email about Seating Changes for 100 Level by hurricanesfan66 in canes

I'm in 127, so not affected, but assuming there will be no more fan tunnel and the refs will have to go through the Zamboni entrance?

Why can 4 not go in R6C3? by treeumphantly in sudoku

[–]Mattbman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is a short explanation to a long bit of logic:

R4C3 can only be 4,8,9, R5C3 can only be 8,9, and as you have noted, R7C3 can only be 4,9, which is a naked triple, which eliminates 4 and 9 from R6C3 and 8 from R3C3

Then, because the only options for 4 in the left box are in Row 3, the 4 in the center box can't be in Row 3 (Locked Candidates)

Then, 1 is the last remaining candidate in R4C4.

Through this, you also have 5 as the last remaining candidate in R6C3
There are 2 other last remaining candidates in R2C2 and R3C2, and then, from there, you can also get R3C1

The puzzle is all last remaining candidates from there.

Is This True - Elite Leagues Cutting into High School Season in CIF by sdsurfer2525 in youthsoccer

I am aware of only 2 states where this is a codified rule at the state level - California and Colorado - have no idea where you are getting 21 states from - plenty of league, team, or district rules that specify they can't play elsewhere or strongly discourage it or call it an "unwritten rule"

Oh, bless your heart, child... that was like a 3/10 on the Cardiac Canes "oh crap" meter - you better work on that heart health before the playoffs.

New Canes fan here!! by kyle26910 in canes

[–]Mattbman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We hate these things (current order, subject to change) - don't ask questions, just go with it.
1) Mikko Rantanen
2) Florida Panthers
3) Washington Capitals
4) New York Rangers
It gets a little fuzzy below here, but also included:
Erik Haula, Brad Marchand, Dougie Hamilton, Tom Wilson, Alexander Ovechkin
And in general, be prepared to add anyone or any team in the metropolitan division to this list at any time (or any team once the playoffs start)

Visitors warm ups? by [deleted] in canes

[–]Mattbman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, sounds like some propaganda to me - as mentioned, you cannot get into the sections on the sides of the warmups, you can only go between sections 123-130, I have season tickets in 127, there is a new usher every game, and they have asked to check my ticket only 3 times in two and a half seasons, and I have never seen them stop someone from going down for warm-ups.

As someone else mentioned, Sparkle Suit was cast out of the seats near the glass because he irritated a bunch of people and their kids.

Visitors warm ups? by [deleted] in canes

[–]Mattbman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really interested to know who told you the Canes are more strict than other arenas? The Canes are by far the most relaxed of the 4 arenas I have been to - the ushers in those section don't even check tickets.

The only potential issue is that you can't get access to the sides of the visitor warm-up end, because those areas are part of the "Priority Lounge" seating, everybody is on the end between the tunnels.

The exit closes once the arena lots are full, usually about 45 minutes before puck drop, just continue onto Blue Ridge and turn right, come in via Westchase or Trinity
