Ongoing NHL Thread Part V minutes for fighting

ugh. I remember what I hate about playoff races (it's been so long!)
I have to cheer for the oilers tonight. *spits*

There was a Panthers fan at the swamp (I Can't Watch) who would not be laughing, but that's a good burn from Reilly.

Nathan MacKinnon To Miss 1-2 Weeks With Lower-Body Injury

Better hope Namestnikov steps up.

Granted their chances of falling out of the playoffs is pretty much impossible but still have a chance for the top spot.

His kids laughing at him for taking TOO MANY SHOTS !!!

These guys obviously don't shoot enough....


Or is this the start of a gay pron?

 

[tducey]

To bad to see Mackinnon injured. In better news Mcdavid is supposed to back tonight for the Oilers so that's very good for an Oilers team that's been listless as of late.

I find it ironic that if you purchased a couple of cases of Bud, you could get tickets to a Coyotes home game. Now cases of Corona might stop you from attending games.

My friend is pissed. Had club seats with free food and drinks for tomorrow's game

I been wondering about that. What are these leagues going to do for the fans that have tickets to the events?

Unfortunately for him/that game, nothing because it was through work.

Apparently, they will be reimbursing us for games we have tickets for. I do have tickets for one game in a few weeks that was free, though, so I'm not sure what they'll do. I didn't pay for them, but they were perks for buying a ticket plan.

Refunds and exchanges are the only/best way.

But what about the people who are supposed to work at these events? I mean I occasionally work in the arena. My Son's program allows me to earn credit for hockey fees by working there, so this is costing me virtual dollars (was supposed to work Saturday) in addition to my ticket tomorrow.

But there are people who are losing actual dollars here. Entering the arena 3 hours before the games you get an education on the massive number of people it takes to run a game behind the scenes.

Not to mention the fucking insane amount of food that could go bad by not being served. Tons of money at stake here.



And I admit I will be pretty pissed if some concessions company gets a bailout and nothing goes to the people who man the registers and make the corn dogs.

id be surprised if anyone in the ticket buying public got a sniff of their money back. iirc, the canucks kept sth deposits during the lockout (true or false @mattola ?) and gave you interest on the amount (not enough interest to buy a beer to a future game though lol)

They used to do it for advance playoff ticket purchases too... team got knocked out and the money you paid stayed in your account for next seasons tickets. Now of course you could probably raise hell and theyd give it back to you, but back when the canucks were actually good and there was a wait list, few wanted to lose their seats.

now these are different times and youd hope for some compassion from teams but in the canucks case i wouldnt expect much from a franchise owner who doesnt provide drinking water to the farm workers he employs

Our owner is pretty decent dude, so I hope for something. Even if it's just straight up swap of tickets.

The rest is a question. Like most owners, he farms out the concessions.

Our playoff packages are "pay as you go".

This is accurate.
