It's funny, all the talk about wide open play in the early days of the Sabres, yet there was no legal 2 line pass, so it's a little counterintuitive. Elimination of that was supposed to open up the game, and it did, for 2 seasons. Can you imagine how many goals Pavel Bure would score if they didn't have the illegal pass? As it was he just stood at center ice and waited for the puck, but actually turning up ice with speed and that shot. He could've challenged 92.

We have the worst cable company every Brighthouse and to get the Lightning games there is an extra package that needs to be purchased.

That plus I am in my office!

It's a freaking goal song, a song that gets played on average a little less than 3 times per game for the home team. It's not like teams are coming out to DMX's "What these b!tches want for the money" and Jay Z is being played at every whistle.

It doesn't matter, if the world wants equality that's great but then we need to start hearing some death metal at NBA and college basketball games. Until that happens, keep hip-hop out of hockey, and I'll leave it at that.

From what I heard, the players picked this song as their option in the bracket. The fans then voted it in. Meaning that there's a lot more people that like it than people who preferred other options. If you don't like it, hit mute on your TV when they score so you don't have to hear it.

EDIT: And that fact that anyone is making this some sort of political/social issue is just absurd.

First off Death Metal is not played in any arena, but there is modern rock, classic rock and alternative rock played at basketball games. It's obviously not the majority of what's played but it is played at Orlando Magic games and in Detroit (the only 2 places I have seen a NBA game)

Pretty much.

It's funny for our manager conference last quarter we had an open forum talking about a bad customer service experience we have had and at least 70 percent of the managers mentioned BrightHouse.

This is the problem in today's society. Everyone is offended by the dumbest poop. It's a (frank)ing song. Get the (frank) over it.

What is racist about it? Seriously? My point was that you won't hear a genre of music like Metal or hardcore as a point celebration song in the NBA, it would never even be considered for a vote, so why should it be for the NHL?

They literally just played Zeppelin and the organist played Beatles before that.

Either I'm completely oblivious or I just don't care because to be quite honest, I don't even notice what music they're playing there 90% of the time. I've never understood the people that complain about their selections.

Music is so diverse that you can't please everyone. Ever.
