The more I look at the Thrashers logo the less sense it makes. The bird has teeth, it’s head is separated from the rest of its body, and apparently birds can flex their wings like pro wrestlers.
Then again, I’ve been to Atlanta, and much of the city doesn’t make much sense to me, either.

man, it’s a 3 hour trek from where I live to the nearest arenas (Chicago, St. Louis)…kills me any time I see stadiums with empty seats. I’d love it if I could go.
B’s play in St. Louis Monday, but I won’t be able to get off work in time to make the drive down :(

any minor league hockey nearby or are you in a hockey wasteland?

I do get plenty of lower tier options. The Peoria Rivermen (AHL) -are 80 minutes away, and Bloomington Prairie Thunder (IHL) play in the same facility that my adult league plays in 45 minutes away. There are also two nearby college club teams, at the University of Illinois and Illinois State. So I can definitely get my fix from other sources, just the NHL that’s tough to catch a live game for.

I don’t know if i’d be able to live that far away from an NHL team lol, I’m a half hour drive ( no traffic) from the Garden, 45 Min if I take the T. When I went to college in Maine it was 2 hours from the Garden, but I did catch a lot of Portland Pirates games cause the rink was only half hour from my school. It was pretty sweet seeing Getzlaf ,Perry , and Ryan playing in the AHL you could tell they were going to be good

Yeah, AHL games can be fun. College games too. I’m pretty much a sucker for hockey, though.

Ya I like college games too. I try and visit my buddy at Merrimac whenever they play someone good ie: BU BC UNH so on and so forth….my college only had a club team though…we sucked lol. Good thing was nobody has ever heard of my school so when I tell them I started on the hockey team as a freshman they assume I’m pretty good……I’m not
by Dangles-McDonnybrook on Nov 19, 2009 8:06 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Merrimack is a great place to see a game. You are always close to the ice and you can always get tickets. They are actually good this year. It’s about time their strategy of recruiting 27 yr olds paid off.

My buddy was an RA of a freshman dorm his sophomore year….he was 19. All freshman dorms are dry so absolutely no alcohol. He was doing his rounds and heard some ruit and shit in the one room so he went in. The room had 5 freshman players from the hockey team….the youngest was 21 oldest 23….needless to say the players were not pleased because they got written up and apparently got in a lot of shit from the coach….you’d think the administration would put 21 year old freshman not in a dry dorm

here’s sports inflation perspective for you: in the mid 90s, me and some buddies (we were finishing high school, starting college) took the T into the city and tried to get mid-week Sox tickets from scalpers. We were able to get some for $35 in rightfield, but had to talk the guy down from $40.
I shudder to think what that would cost us now.

mid-90s you could walk up on gameday and buy $25 left field grandstand seats

According to the first inflation calculator I found with google:
What cost $40 in 1995 would cost $55.99 in 2008.

it’s a little low. he usually averages 16 or 17 mins a game. He scored twice, so those are probably shortened shifts. Didn’t notice if they kept him out after the goals.

I’ve always thought they should calculate PP percentage over 2:00 intervals, the way ERA is done over 9 innings, but I guess then you’d not be able to differentiate the 5-3, 5-4, 4-3 type of distinctions.

also because a PP interval is shortened after a successful score, so i guess the statisticians have it right :)

Yeah, that’s not a bad point. However, a powerplay ends when a goal is scored, so that will make the difference between good and bad PKs significantly different.

Little: don’t do that.
Wideman: don’t give the top PP in the league one minute of 6-on-4 when down by one.

Nice job Peverly, way to run the goalie when the puck isn’t even there.

It shouldn’t be. Sometimes it feels like the jumbotron at the gahden is doing all the cheering so the crowd doesn’t have to.

time for some crazy Jack statements. 2 shooters per round, minimum of 2 rounds, that’s at least 4 statements…

wow a shootout win. this is rare. gave up a point, but a good team win. This could be a turning point game…mark it down.
Recap will be up in a few. Public Skate will stay open until I post the recap.

To be fair, that puts us at 3-3 in shootouts on the season, if I read the stat bar on the TEEvee correctly

doesn’t seem like it but you are probably right.

And they still have won every game where they lead after two. Every OT loss has come from either tied or down after 2.

The cheapass interference call on Recchi, Wheeler going into the net with no call, tons of missed interference calls on Atlanta…I guess it’s my own biases but it seems like the B’s are consistently coming out on the bad side of these things. Continually.

Well that just makes the win that more impressive then doesn't it :-)
