can't pass up a chance to get lorenzo's pizza
- BulliesPhan87

At $9 (I think, could be more) per slice, you sure can pass it up. Go down to the shop on South St. and get it for 1/3 of the price.

I'd go and enjoy the hell out of the game.

I'd rather he make like Wesley Willis.

On the other hand, that single slice is more like 3 slices of whatever the hell they used to serve for pizza at the WFC.

I'm not saying it's a good deal (it's not); I will say it's better than what it used to be.

It absolutely is. And when the hot dog is $6 and the pretzel is $5, it's a (relatively) good price. It's still ridiculous though.

I hope your ice to liquor ratio is way off the whole time you're down there.

That'll learn ya.

Yeah, it's not cheap to go to a game.

That's why I've sold my January tickets.

OT but with the WJC ending last night, I got to thinking about what Team Canada and Team USA would look like in the 2018 Olympics (if NHLers play). Here's what I got:

Team Canada

Taylor Hall - Sidney Crosby - Nathan MacKinnon
Matt Duchene - Connor McDavid - Steven Stamkos
Jamie Benn - John Tavares - Tyler Seguin
Patrice Bergeron - Jonathan Toews - Corey Perry
Claude Giroux - Sean Monahan

Duncan Keith - Drew Doughty
PK Subban - Alex Pietrangelo
Morgan Reilly - Shea Weber
ME Vlasic - Aaron Ekblad

Carey Price
Jonathan Bernier
Jake Allen

Team USA

Max Pacioretty - Alex Galchenyuk - Patrick Kane
Johnny Gaudreau - Jack Eichel - Phil Kessel
JVR - Derek Stepan - Joe Pavelski
Zach Parise - Tyler Johnson - Nick Bjugstad
Kyle Okposo - Brandon Saad

Ryan McDonagh - Seth Jones
John Carlson - Justin Faulk
Jacob Trouba - Ryan Suter
Cam Fowler - Kevin Shattenkirk

Jonathan Quick
John Gibson
Cory Schneider

Macdonald, Coburn, Schenn and the rest of the blue (green?) line don't want to hear any excuses.

Crap ass watered down beer $11
Stale pretzel $6
Worst cheesesteak ever $10

Sitting in the second level watching Rinaldo take regular shifts with the NHL's scoring leader? Priceless.....errr $85

I think it's a bit premature to compile a list of players based on what could happen in 3 years (and assuming that both Eichel/McDavid become top-2 centers for their respective nations). I'd have to imagine more than 1 player per country comes out of the next 3 drafts.

regardless of the teams record watching nhl level players play hockey live is still a thrill for me. and my son.

i played all my life and im still in awe what even the average nhl'ers skill level.

- BiggE

It's sad, but I'm serious. They're just not exciting right now. Even in 06/07, it was still exciting. There's no energy in that building right now. All I can hope is that, since the Eagles showed how much of a prentender they were, that I won't get into screaming matches with people doing "E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!" chants.

While I agree with you, this team is really hard to watch live right now.

It's a shame the great Gary Coleman passed away. Dustin Diamond will have to pick up the slack.

Rinaldo on the top line and our hottest scoroer's hard work leaves him in the exact same place, the fourth line. Genius! Pure genius!

I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.


For real though.... Rinaldo on the first line? Why? I just don't understand.... WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY SOMEONE TELL ME WHY
