Is this sams night?

 

[Coffee]

Thank you, Sam Rosen

 

[Overcast]

I greatly dislike that the reality of Sam retiring is starting to sink in.

If these goofies turn in a limp dick effort I'm going to write them a very strongly-worded letter.

You will be shocked, appalled, and dismayed...

 

[NYRFAN218]

I would be very okay with just having the ceremony and forfeiting the game.

 

[Clark Kellogg]

They’ll undoubtedly be that one to three jerks in the crowd that will shout out something during lulls.

 

[EdJovanovski]

BOZO WILL DESTROY FILTHY PETUS

 

[Tob]

Mika vs Pettersson fight or Bozo vs petey fight. either would be good.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

 

[FoxysExpensiveNYDigs]

Live threads are back!?

 

[TheWrongWay]

Thank you, Sam!

Your enthusiasm, professionalism, and passion have been a blessing. You will be missed, but I know we all wish you well in retirement. And frankly, you deserve better than what the players put on the ice this season.

 

[leetch99]

No Berard... and I guess Mika has forgot how to be a center it seems ? Only the Rangers.....

 

[Do you want ants]

Ridiculous this game with the salute to Sam is on NHLN for us out of market fans. Guess I’ll be using a stream instead of espn+

no special pregame on MSG today, only the normal 30 minute one. kind of ridiculous that they might not show the ceremony

Pearls will be clutched.

No. The pregame show at 12:30 will be all about Sam. John Giannone said as much during one of the intermissions on Thursday. The on-ice ceremony starts at 1.

EJ Hradek of the NHLN told me on Twitter that NHLN will carry Sam's ceremony at 1.

That’s good to know, but still annoying since I’ll have to use a stream.

word okay. thanks. i was pretty upset when i saw that it was the normal length pregame show. figure it would bleed into game start, but not that much

 

[Mike in Houston]

It'll probably be the same length as Henrik's was a few years ago.

Hope they make Canucks sit on the bench thru all 20 minutes of it haha

 

[WhereO Is Kakko]

Funny. I’m heading in now, for the express purpose of seeing Sam’s celebration. If these chuckleheads are down 2-0 at the end of one period, I’m absolutely ok with walking out.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Was hoping Chytil would play in this one.

Regardless... despite my personal wish of falling further down in the standings... Win this one for Sammy.

And score a goddamn power play goal or two for him. Make it an epic OTW or something.
