beerme1 Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 Right now with ten minutes left and down two, you'd swear Winnipeg's arena was the FNC no? You're welcome :beer: Go Jets Go Goosebumps. Please avoid the sweep. The fans deserve this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude_Verret Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) Great to see you! Honored to have you back for arguments sakes. As your avatar indicates though, there will be rainbows and unicorns soon. Sunshine too! The building was damn loud here during that series. Don't know if you were here in person for any of the games but we all know tv does a poor , really poor job of transferring the real noise when it we make it. I have not heard it like it was in 2006 ECF since then. I got no problem with the place in that moment. It was rockin. I wasn't in Buffalo for any games in 2006, but I've been to many games in various arenas in my time and those games in Raleigh in 2006 were the loudest by far. Some have accused the canes of piping crowd noise through the arena sound system...who knows. I think its more to do with the low ceiling at PNC arena, but it was ear splitting in there. A lot of Chet and muffys and kids at canes games too. Edited April 23, 2015 by Claude_Verret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no problems hearing the noise through my t.v. at the end of the winnipeg game last night when the jets faithful saluted that team. I've been to live games many times and I've watched them on t.v. and I think the fnc is the only place people use that excuse for lack of noise. I think the problem is product on the ice. Or maybe something structural ? Who knows ? but if it gets as loud as it was in the Peg it would translate through my t.v.

I'm not arguing loudness in the two buildings, but it's not like there's a NIST or ISO standard for "Hockey Microphone Placement and Gain Levels for TV Broadcasts". There are so many factors in how loud the crowd noise, from building materials to "we have an HoF announcer we don't want to cover up" that the TV can't be taken without a hefty portion of salt.

At least your friends won't show up and root for 12's, telling you how smart it is because then you can go into bankruptcy and erase all your debts........

The only stipulation prior to hiring him/her would be to explain how they will get Chet & Muffy into the game.

That Aud Smell Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 This posting seems like a clear effort on management's part to up the in-game experience. Either the position was created, or someone was terminated from it. Just my take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) Seriously, how much was the problem Chet & Muffy and how much was the Tank? There is a line you can easily cross from getting you into the game and to annoying the crap out of you.

inkman Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) HSBC was a tomb long before the tank. I think it can be directly tied to black Sunday. The franchise crashed to its knees pinning it's hopes on the like of Vanek, Pominville, Roy and Connolly. No wonder everybody stopped cheering.

No one wants to pour full fan heart and soul into a penny-wise, pound-foolish franchise that built a mini-era on the shoulders of a bunch of overrated and overpaid losers. Give us a competitive team that plays with fire in the belly, don't play "Crazy Train" or "Sweet Caroline" every 30 seconds like every other NHL team and the atmosphere will be just fine.

Use the organ more like all good hockey rinks do and always have. I think the 30 second sound bites started as we became increasingly a d d. I thought the ac/dc opening was awesome but that was short lived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
