I think this sums up the absurdity nicely...

Just got back from the Cutthroats game against the Mavericks. Clearly not anywhere close to the NHL level of play, but it was still an entertaining evening. I'd almost forgotten how much I love hockey.
It was fun to watch Quincey playing out there. He never made any really flashy plays or anything, but no one else on the ice had a slapper that was anywhere CLOSE to as good as his. He also executed a couple of nice poke checks right in front of me, where the other guys basically just slap around at the other guys' feet until they lose control. Anyway, given the lack of other options, I'm excited for it and will probably try to make it to quite a few games this season. Hell, it costs about the same as a movie on a Friday night these days, and there's no question what's the better entertainment. |

Blues fans, if you would like your hockey fix... in my NHL 13 franchise, the Blues ended up as the 4th seed. I was 1-3 against them in the regular season (2-4 3-4 6-4 1-4), but they didn't seem nearly as aggressive in the postseason and I swept them (4-1, 5-1, 6-5 OT, 4-3).... in game 3, I scored with an empty net to tie it, got a penalty at the end of regulation, and scored short handed in OT.
Quite realistic, eh?

Meh, I don't think there was ever serious talk about moving out of town, and the NHL would exhaust all options before moving a team.

Top 25 arena in the world in revenue. It will be fine for a while. And honestly this isn't the 80's. Newness wears off fast. People go because it attracts good shows and events.

Still Bettman hates this with a ****ing passion. If the Islanders are sold, then I would look for them to move somewhere else. Barclays Center is not designed for hockey at all, its like America West Arena in Phoenix and Conseco in Indy are. |
