The_Admiral Posted October 29, 2022 Author Share Posted October 29, 2022 "They're going to sell out every game because now they play down the street from all their fans" all their fans are redditors who work in call centers, which is all anyone seems to do in Phoenix, they couldn't all afford triple-digit seats even if the Coyotes played right in their Chandler apartment complexes that never even have their swimming pools open 2 Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiddySicks Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I gotta say, that’s an incredible looking arena for ASU hockey. Shows a ton of progress for that program in a really short amount of time. That’s pretty cool. Continues on the tradition of ASU housing the county’s dysfunctional pro sports teams in their basement. Very Phoenix kinda thing. 2 Quote On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

The_Admiral Posted October 29, 2022 Author Share Posted October 29, 2022 "you're closer to the action" You're the same distance from the action that you would be in the same spot in an NHL arena, there are just fewer opportunities to be farther from the action. Oh, well, I guess I'm just impressed that they found people to interview who weren't like "this is new arena is heckin' epic whiskey bacon, this was a thing that happened, Slava Ukraini" 3 1 1 Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTConcepts Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Honestly, if I were a player on the Coyotes, I'd rather play in a packed barn of 5,000 than in front of 13,000 empty seats every night. With the building being filled with fans who care enough to show up, I bet the energy is pretty electric, too. 2 1 1 2 1 Quote "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..."

IceCap Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Yeah like... most AHL teams have better facilities. I guess a locker room that's worse then some local rink communal locker rooms is acceptable if it means Quebec can't have a team though. 4 Quote PotD 26/2/12 1/7/15 2020 BASS Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal Regular Season Champion 2021 BASS NFL Pick'em Regular Season Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's just a suburb of Montreal. The League though is banking that buck with Arizona TV network money, even though the ratings are weak as usual. 4 hours ago, DTConcepts said: Honestly, if I were a player on the Coyotes, I'd rather play in a packed barn of 5,000 than in front of 13,000 empty seats every night.

The team had to reduce tickets prices though because they risk struggling to fill those 5000 seats. If they have to go out of their way to try to fill half of a regular arena, the enthusiasm for the Coyotes isn't all that great. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How well do you think those metal lockers are anchored to the floor? I don't know how big of a deal it is to drill into the concrete there, considering it's supposed to be a rink.

I have a feeling the team that got evicted for not paying vendors didn't get quality workmanship. Two teammates are going to fight over unsanctioned wife-sharing and the whole thing will come crashing down like an Arrested Development house. 1 2 Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 One of my buddies from ASU works as a cameraman for whatever network broadcasts the Coyotes games (I think it’s Bally Sports now, but it was something different up until this year) and he was given a few tickets to pass out to people he knew. Nobody wanted them 2 1 Quote On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
