Does NJ not have a rep?
Elias has been tearing it up. Do any other teams not have reps? Also didn’t there use to be a rookie game?
I thought W'peg was the only team w/o a rep
R.I.P. Belak, Rypien, Boogaard, Lokomotiv.

Speaking of rookies Craig Smith looked amazing in the relay. I was just like Datsyuk is so good, and then when Smith came out, I kept thinking don’t mess up, but after Smith was halfway through I was thinking I wish I could see his and Datsyuk relay side by side because Smith was fast around those pylons.
Of course he looked amazing! He’s the Honey Badger.

I am pretty sure that was the case for both of them. You can’t really just show up and go out to sea, you need to find someone who knows the area. Nice fish by both of them. They should do an outdoors challenge or something, maybe they could get some sponsors to donate to charity.

It's one of the most ridiculous commercials I've ever seen.
But all of the creepy fool’s commercials are head-shakingly bad. Remember the “Nashville’s First Soap Opera” ones?
It was really bad. Fake Eastern European accent bad.
Ever since then, his commercials has gone from actor portrayed-but still relevant to the case commercials to vaguely sexist garbage.
Have you seen the one where it’s just sweaty people dancing around while the details of someone’s case are being read? I think they’re doing Zumba or something but it’s a little much. How he has any credibility left as a lawyer, I don’t know.

Davisca has said she’s going to a game in gold. Not sure whether she has previously, though. She said she was going to try and join us on this thread late in the game.
I'm wearing my jersey. (Or at least I'm planning on it.)
If someone decides to yap at me, I’ll take it up with the security people. I should be allowed to wear whatever jersey I want and not get harassed. I am, however, going to stop over at Stanley Cup of Chowder a few days before and see what they say/suggest/etc. They probably know best, so if they highly suggest I don’t wear it, I won’t. Otherwise… ain’t a whole lot stopping me!
Hands go uuppp..... AND THEY STAY THERE!

Ooh, Predators at Kings and Predators at Ducks are back-to-back at the beginning of my kids’ Spring Break, but we went to CA last March, and I didn’t plan to go out there again already…

Easy, wear gold (brass) knuckles with your gold jersey!
Take no prisoners and have a good time! Cold water should get the blood out of your jersey.
Hey, when are you going to the game in Boston – Feb. 11? SuperPeks is going and heard it’d be dangerous to wear gold.
I just read that, yeah. My roommate is from the area and she says she doesn’t think it should be a problem as long as you’re respectful and polite, so we’ll see. I’m planning on wearing it still, though. Like I said above, I’m gonna stop by the Bruins SBN just to double check with those guys and see what they say, cause if anyone knows best, it’s those guys.
Hands go uuppp..... AND THEY STAY THERE!
-nashvillepredators-
We should try to meet up at the game!! Where are you sitting? Are you guys just visiting Boston?
Hands go uuppp..... AND THEY STAY THERE!
-nashvillepredators-
Yes we should meet up!!!! My husband is in sales and travels for a living, and he has customers there. We would be taking his customers to entertain them.
Have no idea where we’re sitting b/c we don’t have tickets yet. ALthough We SHOULD get tickets soon…they are double what tickets are for Preds games!
No kidding!! I bought my tickets in SEPTEMBER, way up in the 300s, and they were $135 EACH. (Yay for early xmas presents…) I keep hearing people complain about $40 upper-bowl tickets to the Preds game, and I’m like you know, it could be a LOT worse. I would look into tickets ASAP, seriously.
Hands go uuppp..... AND THEY STAY THERE!
-nashvillepredators-
screw them…you should be allowed to wear your jersey anywhere. if they want to be classless buttholes it’s their problem not yours
That’s what I figure. If anyone tries to pick on me, they will be VERY startled. I’m an extremely polite and respectful person (especially in someone else’s barn), and I may be very small, but I can stand every single damn inch of my ground when I need to, while still being respectful and intelligent. It usually surprises people into compliance, lol. If it gets really bad, I’ll just go to the security people. Like you said, it’s my jersey and I should be able to wear it wherever the heck I want!

Dumbest questions ever.
So, um, what does it feel like being successful? Do you like it?

road trip idea
Pred at Avs for the last game of the season would be great. But such a haul! I wish there was a weekend away game left that is closer.
There were a TON of Preds fans when I went to the January game, too!

I did! One of the guys I talked to was a transplant, yeah. The lady I talked to had a friend or family member or someone who liked the Preds, and the more she watched them, the more they grew on her. It was kinda funny though, whenever I walked by another Preds fan, we both exchanged small little knowing smiles and head-nods. Solidarity!

Yeah. But really, no one wants to get hurt or hurt anyone. So Shea shaved right before the game.

The difference between Elliot and all the other goalies is 3 goals.

A little. Rinne vs Thomas would’ve been much better.

I'm gonna be unpopular here, but...
Rinne’s first half of the season didn’t deserve it.
