a screenshot from today's Panthers-Senators game

attendance 7,311

It turned out to be the smallest crowd in franchise history

time to move this franchise to one of the Canadian cities

**Vegas39** · 10-13-14, 10:48 PM

why not move into better seats

Quebec City deserves a team.

**Vegas39** · 10-13-14, 10:51 PM

Rule #1 time to move team when concession staff outnumbers paying fans

**Russian Rocket** · 10-13-14, 10:53 PM

this is Atlanta Thrashers in the making...hell at least Atlanta had a few stars on the roster...this guys have nothing

Fukk yeah. Hamilton could support a team also. Don Cherry said a few years ago, just after the announcement of the Jets return, that Saskatoon was next!

They have had exhibition games there every year since the Jets came back. They would need to rebuild the stadium. Only holds 7500 iirc.

Today's bets:

GL!

**zizoudane10** · 10-14-14, 07:44 AM

Looking good Rocket. Went 2-2 (Colorado @2.63 and Anaheim -1.5 @2.75 won, and Senators -1.5 @3.55 and Habs

@2.2 lost) yesterday, went home with 2.76 units, not bad at all.
Didn't have a look at the card for tonight till now, will do later.

On a sidenote: Why do teams switch their logos all the time... Remember how beautiful some of the old logos were?

+2.76 units is a solid night Zizio

can't tell you much about Logos though...I also kinda like the old ones for many teams

**zizoudane10** · 10-14-14, 07:57 AM

Maybe it's just me, but when f.e. everytime I see the Nucks logo I think it is goddamn ugly and how I liked the oldschool one a lot more. Not that logos matter much, but why some teams tend to change theirs every few years is beyond me.... Say whatever you want about the Habs f.e., but I like that they never changed their logo since the 50's.
I hate all these new logos with way to much in it. Maybe I'm lame, but I like logos like the Oilers have etc. Keep it cool and simple. And not all these fire and flames or whatever shit in it. Same goes for goalies masks.... If they'd spend as much time for practice as they do for creating a new oh so "cool and fancy" mask, we'd see no goals all the time

Anyway, sorry for off topic here

I'm a big fan of evolution

(not when it comes to logos though

)

nothing beats the Euro hockey logos though

So true

I heard NBA is talking about shirt advertising.... If that comes through, only a matter of time before the NHL does the same and they will look exactly like the Euro teams. (no money in hockey in Europe though (except KHL), so I do understand the need for it)

I remember when the FC Barcelona started with ads on their trikot..... Was a sad day for me. And I'm not even kidding.

yeah man I hate that shit also...your eyes are getting tired after like 5min of looking at this shit
I pray that this never happens in NHL

You know, Barcelona ALWAYS said that they will NEVER EVER put ads on their trikot. Then suddenly they decided to place UNICEF for free on them. And everyone said, oh wow, how honorable, how nice of them. But when they did that, I knew that it was all a move to get their fans used to it, to later sell for real. And guess what they did.....
Been a fan since I was eight, and it always was something really special that they always had a pure trikot, without ads. Club lost a good bit of his soul when they decided to sell.....

It's money. New logos = new jerseys (sweaters for you purists) = more sales. NFL and NBA been doing it for years. Cash cow.

Hey Rocket I'm a bit new to betting the NHL, but may I ask why Sharks? I've been looking at them aswell, but just curious what you're thinking.

welcome to the thread kokarn

Sharks is my home team, so I hate justifying on why I bet on them

...but all the jokes aside, Sharks have won the first 2 games of the season. Both games were a shutout wins - so the goalies and D are on fire. Plus they've managed to score 7 goals - so there is a lot of confidence in that locker room right now.

Since entering the NHL in 1991-92, the San Jose Sharks have won 22 of 33 games against the Washington and Capitals are undoubtedly a very tough opponent that has enough fire power to go toe-to-toe with San Jose. We might see a very close game, however I still think that Sharks will continue with their winning streak tonight.

**Smoke** · 10-14-14, 09:28 AM

Great start to the season rocket
