They are losing their shirt on the Pru Center after they absorbed all of Vanderbeek's debt. Now they are in desperation mode.

I know you are really down on the Devils and everything they do. Do you have proof/link or is it just more toilet bowl or even hyperbole on your part.

I suspect as well that its just an announcement that the Sixers will play a few home games in Newark.

I don't think it would be that easy for the Sixers to bail on a major market and go to a market that already has two teams, not just one, I can't imagine Stern would allow that to happen.

It's common knowledge that Harris/Blitzer bought the devils so they could get their hands on the Prudential Center. The devils aren't important to them ultimately.

I'm just glad the owners are working on this right now, while the devils are in their 2nd or 3rd free fall of a season halfway completed

If the owners actually were involved with the on ice decisions enough for it to matter, it would be a bad thing, trust me.

Collin pointed out that the Devils and PruCenter just followed Party Poker on Instagram recently.

So Poker. Maybe a celebrity tournament or a sponsorship. Joint sponsorship for Philly/Devils most likely? Something that will go into both arenas?

Can confirm the #Sixers-#Devils press conference tomorrow is NOT about any potential relocation of either franchise.

Can also confirm that #Sixers-#Devils presser isn't about on-court/on-ice matters. Sixers aren't playing any games in Newark, for instance.

Seriously? More funnies...the Devils and the arena were a package. The problem they have in the Sixers is it's just the team and no arena. With the Devils and Arena, it's all vertically integrated. They control the content and the arena. The reason why Vanderbeek and the Nets eventually moved as well so that ownership can control the arena as well with no landlord overseeing.

I think you downplay the Devils a bit too much, this is an example of it. You reach when the ownership combined net worth is 9 billion and yet are losing their shirts buying the Devils. :shakehead
