The_Admiral Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 I thought the Devils owned their own arena. Hmm.I wonder if Jersey City would've been a better location than Newark. It's closer to the city, has more businesses, and it's not known as the festering anal cyst of the East Coast. But I don't really know where Devils fans live in relation to the arena, or if they live anywhere at all, so maybe Newark was a brilliant idea after all? ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 The Rock is about two blocks from Penn Station, which is the biggest train station in New Jersey, most trains come through here. They also provide shuttle buses to the other train station at Broad Street so public transportation is plentiful, unlike Jersey City which is the most god forsaken place in the entire US of A. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I dunno, hybrid icing seems interesting, and I saw an image with a "bench crease" making it easier for officials to determine too many man, I kinda like that idea. 3v3 OT though? I dunno.

The_Admiral Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 League minimum is fair for Pisani to be a fourth-line winger or 13th forward. I feel marginally better about a Bickell/Dowell/? fourth line now that it has someone with some games under his belt on it. If he sucks, he can be waived with little pain. He'll endear himself to Chicago's sizable grinderphile contingent and maybejustmaybe contribute more than Ben Eager or Colin Fraser did. Speaking of the little scrapper, if you pretend this is a Fraser-for-Pisani trade, Chicago comes out on top! ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HedleyLamarr Posted August 19, 2010 Author Share Posted August 19, 2010 I believe it's the goal line that, if the puck touches any part of it, results in a goal. It looks to be about a puck's width past the red goal line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can score there in, if they can't they're out. Same goes with the Flames though I do feel a little more positive that Tanguay and Joker can help out.

The_Admiral Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I'm gonna slot Calgary 8th and Anaheim 9th. Ducks still have that dynamite scoring+checking combo line (presuming they retain Bobby Ryan) and strong goaltending, but there's too much going on in the West for them to sneak in as presently constructed. Halak won't be as good as people think in St. Louis (my 10th) when he doesn't have a Jacques Martin defensive-zone trap to hide a multitude of ills, and he'll also have to help kill all of Janssen and Crombeen's retarded penalties. The Detroit power play alone will eat him for brunch. I don't care where the Coyotes end up as long as it's below 8th and ultimately Winnipeg.And speaking of Detroit, I want to build the world's largest atlatl to start launching spears in the direction of anyone fawning over the Tampa Bay Lightning. Enough of this "Steve Yzerman: best GM in the league today, or best GM ever?" crap, please. They'll look better than they really are because they play in the NASCAR Division and get 18 games against teams that are just trying to pay their utility bills but they'll still get facially violated by the Capitals, the Penguins, and the Western Conference. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks to be about a puck's width past the red goal line.I thought that and it makes sense. Still won't make a difference if the camera view is obstructed, though, which is often the case in replay situations where they are trying to determine if it did cross the line.
