Sounds like someone's color balance is off

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Canada was fine. Am, mer, I, ca, was so, drawn, out.

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Pretty sure the great state of Utah frowns upon that, bae

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Everything else in the building that is orange come ups as orange.The refs arm band is clearly orange in the pic attached.

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Oh hey it’s Matty’s birthday!! Happy birthday bud!

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Can't see the link on Tapatalk. The Jersey orange is definitely more neon than the refs. You'll see more orange or on a bench shot or when they aren't flashing the incandescents

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Yeah, the neon is just awful on ice.

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

I know tastes differ but if you like the Pacific all whites you’re wrong

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Happy Birthday Matty, hope you had a great day man!

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

You’re a sweetheart, thank you. I’ll let the ladies know, but I’m just not sure they could live without me. ;)

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Must have been one hell of a whirlwind of a weekend for Boeser! Amazing guy and so humble!

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

This weekend made me hate Marchand even more, which I didn’t think was possible.

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

^ Yeah. That guy sucks.

::waits for all the Bruins fans to tell me about Gudas and Carcillo and Brashear and Dave Shultz and whomever else...::

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

I am sick of his antics now. He deserved that 5 games and I actually think he should have gotten more. Needs to clean up his game. Play the rat all you want, I'm fine with that. But the stupid suspensions just aren't necessary. I think he's been suspended & fined a combined like 8 times or something. C'mon man!

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Agreed, he is a grade A jackass who makes most of the other assholes in the league look likable. Loved it when Johnny Hockey tripped him and the crowd was cheering!

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

You guys sure know how to make a man cry. Thank you.

And I'm in total agreement that Marchand should not have been eligible to play in the ASG. He's having a great time messing around and enjoying the spotlight in Tampa, while Marcus Johansson is home nursing a concussion. Just doesn't seem right.

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

^Happy belated buddy. My bad for not saying something on your actual b-day. Two minutes for unfriendly conduct.

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Very sad to see Jags go back to the KHL, but very honored to have gotten to watch him play. One of the best personalities in the sport in the past 25 years.

On another topic, what're the Olympic eligibility rules for NHL play this season? Was it just somebody on a roster at all this year? On an active roster as of the opening ceremonies? Could we see Jags in the olympics this year?!

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

I'll never forget my first time seeing Jagr in person. The season after he played for Philly when he was with Boston, the Flyers hosted the Bruins. Jagr got done playing a pretty grueling game. As the reporters went down to the locker room and the coaches conference room, in the hallway was Jagr, doing fucking lunges and some ridiculous post-game workout. Seeing that work ethic up close made me understand why he's done this thing professionally for roughly 30 years. He's a machine.

A side takeaway from that moment too was right next to Jagr was Zdeno Chara on a stationary bike. Seeing a 6-foot-8 man on a normal-sized stationary bike was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Looked like a giraffe on workout equipment :lol

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Good thing the preds have a damn solid PK because they take way too many penalties.

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

We are the best in the world. Embrace in our greatness

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

An article says the Hurricanes owner is considering bringing back the old Whalers jersey for select home games. To which, I say bravo, good sir!

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Anyone ever been to a Hurricanes game? I am thinking about eventually doing it because its only like 3 hours away (compared to 6 for Philly) and it would be nice to see a different rink

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

No, but this is the time to do it. The new owner just had everyone come down from the upper level to fill the lower level bowl. He's trying different things to bring more excitement and atmopshere there.

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Yes, I was at the Hurricanes vs Canadiens game on December 27th of this season. The PNC Arena is pretty nice. We sat in the upper bowl in the "Fan Zone." They seem to have a pretty solid fanbase. Not sold out or anything, but they have fans.

You should also note that they share a parking lot with the NC State Football stadium, so there is a lot of parking. Take note of where you park because it is easier than it looks to get turned around.

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Hmm, maybe it was mostly Habs fans the night I was there :lol

The "fan zone" definitely had fans that go to every game though!

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

I'm sure you looked already but they're at Carolina on Tuesday and then again on Saint Patrick's Day. So those are your opps.

Re: The NHL Thread (Penns are garage league champs)
 

Is this the most the Hurricanes have ever been discussed on one page? I think so

Re: The NHL Thread (Golden Knights are alright)
 

Mike Fisher and the Preds have announced that he's working out with the team and planning to come out of retirement and sign a contract with the team before the trade deadline. He was able to stay retired for all of like half a season? :lol

Re: The NHL Thread (Golden Knights are alright)
 

We are more than alright, you coward renamers.
