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

Mike Sielski ‏@MikeSielski 4m

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.

Stay tuned for a "major announcement" Devils fans!!!

typical Devils letdown :laugh:

:cry:

We hung around there for two periods and then folded like a house of cards down the stretch. Yup.

Kovy is coming back! Major trade! Stadium Series jerseys! Sixers to NJ!?

Poker Game :(.

Yup. The only thing major about this will be the letdown.

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

The devils are a secondary concern to the ownership group. They didn't acquire 9 billion dollars by making poor decisions. They were intriqued by the profit potential of the facility. Do you think the devils would have been purchased if they didn't have a spanking new building? Let's be serious here.

The person doing all the tweeting keeps using the wrong accounts for tweets. It's kind of funny.

Love how you add imaginary scenarios to back your hyperbole.

That whole statement is asinine because they do in fact have a spanking new building. What if the Devils had Sidney Crosby, does Vanderbeek sell? I mean add if they didn't to a lot of scenarios. Just keep adding scenarios to keep this going.

The team would be worth less without the arena. But the arena also would have been worth less alone. An NHL team gurantees them to have at least 41 games/night a year where they don't have to put in extra work to fill the arena.

I think I solved it:

Online gambling legalized in NJ.

76ers moving to Newark.

Kovy returns from Russia.

Devils moving to Las Vegas.

MetLife gets a Winter Classic.

NJ finally plays in a Winter Classic, but its the NJ sixers vs the Brooklyn Nets.

Kovy excited to play for NJ, finds out its the NJ sixers.

Everybody gets vouchers for 4 tickets to a game for every $20 donated to online slots or poker.

$1 hotdog nights return.

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?

And it makes sense with the 76ers too, being that they are so close to South Jersey.. Sounds like Party Poker signed an agreement with both teams, being that management is the same, but I'm guessing the majority of that will go into Prudential Center since it's in the state with legal online gambling.. Really hoping for the PartyPoker.com Fire Lounge haha.. Maybe they can throw some computers in there so the rich folks can gamble during games

Yes if they just did this every night it would be a major enough announcement for me.

Iverson to play for the Devils?

Devils go from lowest shots per game to highest shots per game overnight.

Even though it probably is something as stupid as a charity poker tournament, I'm still glad this thread existed.

just a big one behind the bench and Pete can pull the lever to find out the next line going out.

Carter - Zajac - Janssen

"You're up"


:laugh:
That would probably be an improvement over the current lineups Pete is putting on the ice. Unless the slot machine knows that Boucher, Lokti and Co shall not play in the 3rd period.

Maybe Harris lost the franchise in a hand of Poker? :laugh:

Is Monty Burns our new owner?
