Yawn.

It'll prove I can get great seats for the home opener for a good price.

Somehow I had only heard about last night's game yesterday afternoon. When I went to look for tickets on tickets.com, they were sold out, leaving only ridiculously priced tickets available on StubHub and VividSeats, and seemingly shady overpriced dealings on CL. I checked a few times throughout the day with no improvement. About 6pm, I went to StubHub and saw that they had 0 tickets available. I couldn't believe that they had sold all the tickets at the prices they were asking, so I figured it was possible that they dumped them back on the box office. They did! A couple of minutes after 6, there were dozens and dozens of single, pairs, and three-seat options available for face value. I will-called a pair of tickets and enjoyed the game thoroughly. For future deadline take-it-or-leave-it events, I may employ this strategy again.

He worked hard and played well on the PK. SH vs WAS:

Helmet cam from one of the participants; skip to 2:20 for the trial run: Neat.

I see you negotiatin' 'round town about the sport I love and I'm like, ###### yoooou! I guess the ticket in my pocket wasn't enough and I'm like, ###### yoou and, uh, ###### them too!

He never really wanted the attention, but then he realized that his Mom might like to see the honors while she was still around. That's not ego, that's empathy. So as soon as one hall inducted him and word got out that he was open to the idea, the flood gates opened. He deserves to be where he is. There's nothing negative about this story.

State Farm. Parents put me on their policy way way back, so when it was time for me to get my own, I got a large loyalty discount. I now have a lot of coverage on my vehicle, but the discounts and clean record bring the price down a lot. A few years ago when someone ran a red and hit my old car, I felt they lowballed its value somewhat, but they did fight to get me my deductible back when it turned out the other driver was uninsured. More recently when someone jacked my car cover, they covered it, and when someone busted up my door with a shopping cart, they effortlessly got the money from the other insurance company.

Larry Quinn feels the need to speak up, and the shocking part is that I don't think he's entirely wrong.

Ah, must have started this year or last year. My true mistake was trying to defend the intelligence of ESPN commentators.

I'm ok with this vibe. Hopefully we're back on track by then, but if not, it'd be good to get some of the local rivalry games into the FNC (like the Cansius-Niagara game scheduled for Saturday February 9th), and promote the hell out of it with cheap tickets and half price food/beer and whatnot. Hell, make it a double header with a high school hockey game leading off. Or a triple header with a girls game to start it all. "Homegrown Shootout," or the like. Good for fans, good for the teams, good for local hockey.

It probably doesn't help that the names on Dynamo jerseys are spelled using the Russian alphabet. Maybe some US television exposure of Russian and European hockey would be a good thing for the sport. More hockey in general on TV is likely a good thing. See also: nationally televised college hockey. Edit: Quick, pronounce this guy's name without looking at your phoenetic chart: If you said "SO-LOV-EE-YEV," you should be on ESPN3. Also, you were right, that is Miro Satan in the back.

We were ranked 23rd last week: http://espn.go.com/n...son/2013/week/1 Moving up 13 spots without playing a single game. Seems legit.

I really do hope that this is "the last time."

I'm transitioning between panels 2 and 3.

Sounds like lazy ass isn't earning his ice time.

Western New York Hockey LLC trademarked the wordmarks "Rafters Club" and "French Connection" in the last month, but I doubt these are related to jerseys. No new trademarked images yet. The "Buffalo" wordmark on the last 3rd jerseys was never trademarked.

So's this tired ###### thread, so how about we call it even.
