Title: Nhl
Post by: Sandman on September 18, 2005, 07:33:46 PM
I went and watched the L.A. Kings last night. They played the Ducks.

Lots of rules changes. Should be an interesting season.

1. Goal line moved back 2 feet.
2. Blue lines moved towards red two feet.
3. Red lines don't count for two-line pass.
4. No more tie games. Shootouts!

Hmmm... any other changes that I forgot?

Go Sens Go.

This is huge-

Goaltenders cannot handle the puck behind the goal line, except in a restricted area.

Devils just lost a sudo defensemen ...

i like the new rules but im still pissed about last year

bruins ticket prices either didnt change or were reduced for the absolute worst seats in the house.

i hope the nhl gets 3000 fans a night for a season so they understand what it feels like not to be cared about.

There's a soft offsides now, but it's still offsides. I'm not sure how a player can cherry pick if they have to tag up on the blue line.

not quite marty will be fine, the trapozoid is quite large, can still stop it behind net and fire it up ice. just cant go into the corners to get it. your going to see defencemen get slaughterd in the corners with soft dump ins.
going to be interesting to see how they interpt the goalie stopping play on a shot.

Go Devils

It wasn't goon tactics that beat our tulips last season, it was (gawdamn) Belfour and lack of heart.

I was there too, just seeing the Kings skate was tear jerking for a die hard NHL freak like me.

Nope, you have to square with me.  The bet was between you and me.  If Funked welches with you, that does not affect me.

Ohh, and bought tickets Saturday.  So, can you email me to make the arrangements?

Post by: Nash on September 20, 2005, 07:02:46 PM
Well that's true, of course. I just thought that Funked had agreed with the arrangement. But you're right - if (and that's a highly unlikely "if") he welches, then it's got nothing to do with you. You're still owed a pair of tickets. Will shoot you an email right now..

Nash, never meant to imply you would not take care of it.

You're straight up when it comes to things, and I respect you regardless of our differences of opinion on the boards.

my friend.

you have my email, right?
Title: Nhl
Post by: Nash on September 21, 2005, 01:24:52 AM
No....

I had to send you a PM through this BBS. I reformated my HD about a month ago, so I lost any of your emails that I could reply to.

Did you get the PM?

If not, and if you've still got my email address, please send me an email and then we're back in order.
