Yep. The Philly game will be the gauge for whether were a contender or a pretender.

A loss won't kill them, here by any means. They need to look like they belong, though.

Yeah, that was my reaction too, but I just gave up.

I dont think the weather would matter

and I'd do likewise, right next to you, albeit, not that close to you

Eichel 5th amongst forwards in ice time at 21:34.
- Beethoven

wow, I find that kinda odd as I can think of a few guys who play 5b5 pp and pk that id think would be higher.

My guess would be
Marchand
Kopitar
Toews
ROR

John Carlson registered 8 points last week.
David Pastrnak had 7 goals.

I have Carlson and Dahlin in both of my leagues. My scoring from the blue line has been electric so far.

It was Draisaitl, Zabanajad, McDavid I forget the last.

The Sabres and Bills are a combined 12-2-1. Only the Sabres have sold out a home game this year (New Jersey).

Somehow, the New England game wasn't a sellout.

That's interesting. I would have thought the Bills home opener would have been a sellout. People were selling tickets online for a crazy amount

It could simply be the case that people assumed it was a sellout and nobody checked the box office. I would also assume the unsold tickets were all nosebleeds.

In Winnipeg, having 500 seats left counts as a sellout

"A few seasons ago, the availability of hundreds of tickets on the Ticket Monster website right up until game time had already piqued my interest.

The Jets, rather sensitive about this subject, always downplayed it, saying those tickets were mostly from the batch set aside for the league or visiting teams and didn’t count and, besides, a near-sell-out was close enough to a sell-out for them."

Last year, weren't you were one of the people who said "Change nothing" during the 10-game win streak.

That worked out really well.

Very true. I don't have a fear of heights and I don't mind the view from the upper deck, but I don't like sitting up there because of all the drunk idiots. My husband and I both are spoiled at this point and will only buy tickets in the club level if possible.

yet playing cozens with eichel would not have helped cozens this year

interesting
- homiedclown

V.O. has more professional experience playing against men. Cozen, while a nice pick is farther down the development chart. The best for him is to go to the AHL and see how he is with next level talent. If he smokes em down in the AHL, bring him up.

Cozens isn't eligible to play in the AHL this year. Or next year. So it's either NHL club or back to Jr.

is edmonton trying to wear their only good players out by christmas so they can fall apart?

i would like to see Eichels minutes drop, especially while the other lines are playing decent.

Club seems to be the "safest" now
i like the upper deck views but yes the drunks are awful there and in the rockpile

McDavid and Draisaitl make sense showing up together basically because they play together for the most part. But it is concerning that both are up there in the top 5.

I have what's probably a bit of an irrational fear that some idiot drunk will fall in the upper deck and take me out with them.

Part of the draw for me for the club seats is the fact that the bathrooms aren't a disaster and never have much of a line.

My brother gets tickets in the 100 level around the 40-yard line. I usually get 2 or 3 games a year. This year, I got New England, yesterday's game, and next week's game all back-to-back-to-back. I haven't had an issue yet.

every true, feel that way with the Sabs as well. 200 level is a much shorter wait.

My husband went to the New England game with his best friend who has seasons this year. They're in the 100 level around the 20 yard line closer to the non scoreboard end, home team side of the field. The people were fine but he said the bathroom situation was awful.

Like I said, we're a bit spoiled at this point. We like to get to 1, maybe 2 games a year typically. So we're good with shelling out the extra $$ for the club seats.
