When you don't score, and that kid for the Jets, Evander Kane has been pretty hot past couple of games, thats how I guess... Quote Link to comment

iamthenorm Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 So, after talking to them about it. One of them saw plenty of Alaska Aces games, just not NHL. Other guy is completely clueless as to what hockey is. Either way, buy a few overpriced beers and enjoy. Quote Link to comment

Same league as Bakersfield, use to go to a bunch of their games when I lived out there... Quote Link to comment

At minor league baseball games, there are gimmicks along with the baseball. Hockey have the same ideas? Quote Link to comment

I wouldn't think it would be, but I have no idea. passes may not be as crisp, the product not as slick, but what the minor league guys lack in that, they more than make up for in guts... When I lived in Bakersfield, there was a winger, Josh Liebnow. This kid had tons of heart, and not an ounce of quit in him. He wasn't the biggest guy, maybe 5'9, 175, but he played every game like it was his last. I saw him put a clean hit on a guy who was much bigger than him (6'4, 225 if memory serves) and he absolutely crushed him. Broke his collar bone and cracked a couple of the bigger dudes ribs.

walksalone Posted March 1, 2013 Author Share Posted March 1, 2013 Rangers win 4-1 and score a power play goal, holy sh*t!!!!!! On a crappier note, the Av's might lose Ryan O'Reilly to Calagary, essentially, because the Av's are cheap bastards... Quote Link to comment
