PTS Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 HSBC Arena ice has been painted light blue as the NHL wants to experment in weird ways to win fans. The Amerks will play on blue ice when they come into town. Note To NHL: To win fans over, first you need to have games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawerchuk Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 yeah, alot of this gimmick stuff is for non hockey purists. I definitely think the league needs to revamp some rules (two line pass, tag up offsides, auto icing etc) but if they think tinkering with the ice is gonna do something; I'm not so sure. If it works well with HDTV then it might be worth it because I would get the HDTV along with Center Ice once these idiots get the league back. But please, spare us with the glowing puck nonsense and the flames attached. Its very, very bogus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swedesessed Posted March 15, 2005 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 I will say this, it might be a bad example but....when I played ESPN NHL Hockey for PS2 with my nephew and we played on the blue ice....it just seemed more pleasant to look at....again perhaps its a bad example, but Im willing to give the blue ice surface a chance.

Saber61 Posted March 15, 2005 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 hey it doesn't hurt to try right? just give it a shot for the amerks and let them play and well watch. If it doesn't work im sure people will voice there opinion. Im interested to see what its going to look like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blugold43 Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 i'm cool with the blue ice, but they should leave the color of the lines as is.....dark blue blue lines if need be...and a bright red line. what ....am i supposed to call it the orange line now?

Hawerchuk Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 definitely. Change the ice surface color if its working, but no need to change the line colors. I don't get that part of it. I am in favor of them trying it for the upcoming Amerks game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
