With the Padres, I'd like them to go back to Navy and Orange. Modernize that look, and I think you're all good. The Brown looks are cool as a throwback, but wearing them 162 times a year will get tiresome.

Good riddance, indeed. The Red version is a million times better than the blue version.

And it's stupid.

There's no point in having an outdoor game in a domed stadium.

My favorite team now only 20 minutes away from me? Sounds good to me!

Wait a minute, is that for ANY ticket at the ACC? As in, $150 even for something in the nosebleeds? God does Toronto have some ridiculous ticket inflation. It depends on the game. On Stubhub, some Leafs games start at around $50, while others start at $150. The next Leafs-Habs game at the ACC starts at $230 (and that's just standing room only, if you want a seat, it's at least $300).

I've seen worse. They used to have a thing where you get 2 free tickets when you buy a $20 bottle of Absolute or Stoli or something from Fry's (a local grocery store).

I'm interested to see how much money they're making off of parking. They made a huge deal about it being this untapped revenue source. I'm interested in seeing how well they're doing on that front.Fun Fact: I parked in a non-game-designated lot right up front at Westgate for the Ducks game. Free of charge. Unless you just blindly follow the signs, there's nothing forcing you to the game lots. Yeah, I went to a Coyotes - Kings game earlier this year, and I just parked over by the Johnny Rocket's in a free parking lot (I believe Lot J). It was still a shorter walk than the walk I take to get from my car to the Honda Center when I go to Ducks games.

Oh, they'll be in the current Ducks colors/style. I have no doubt. But it'd be nice if there was some way to note that Teemu and Jiggy were both Mighty Ducks as well and had huge contributions in their Mighty years. Maybe split it down the middle or something? Half eggplant-teal/half black-gold-orange? That might look cheesy, but I think it'd be nice. Neidermayer was a Mighty Duck too for a short period, but since it was just the one year, it'd be weird if they gave him the Mighty treatment as well. Like this? (Obviously, I'd hope they'd do a better job of matching it up, but whatever. My rough concept.) I don't like that at all. Just use the current idenity. I also hope the retired numbers are on the other side of the Pond, but I wouldn't mind if they did it the way the Kings did it. That works too, but they'll have to move all the current banners over a bit.

Even if they don't win anything this year, they'll probably raise a banner for #8 next year. I'm very curious to see what they do with that.

I wish they were a bit more creative with the Stanley Cup Banner. Even though it's a different color, it's pretty much the same as the other banners. I like what Chicago does, and I wish they had something more like that. At the very least, I'd like them to organize their banners in some way that's not completely stupid.

I don't think BC Place would work for baseball. They'd have to remove the big scoreboard hanging from the ceiling, and they would have to reconfigure the seating, and it will just be weird. If Vancouver ever wanted an MLB team, they'd have to build a stadium.

I think the Presidents Trophy banner should stay, but they should get rid of the Regular Season Championship banner. Speaking of that, how many teams do the "Regular Season Champions" banner? I can only think of San Jose, Detroit, and Washington.

Theoretical question: Is it okay to buy a counterfeit jersey if you plan on burning it?
