lol I just bought two for Game 4 and I'm flying in from Los Angeles just an hour and a half before puck drop. REALLY don't make me regret this, lol.

Damn, that is cutting really close. Especially in this age of airline delays. I don't think I've had a flight in the past couple months that hasn't been delayed. Best of luck on that.

So it looks like the CBJ will be on the HNIC on a Saturday night all alone. That is huge, especially for all the Canadian boys to be playing in the highest profile game ever in the history of the team. With the Habs not playing on Sat, you and the Pens are it. hopefully the CBJ have a good game on National TV. Oh and Robert, Canada DOES respect you!

CBJ almost ALWAYS play well on HNIC! :yo:

The good news is it's a non-stop flight from LA so I should have a good idea if we're going to be on time well ahead of game time. If I can't make it, I'll just re-list the tix while on the plane or whatever!

I'm not just coming into town for the game. Coming in to hopefully put an offer in on a home. But you're damn right I tried to plan it around the CBJ game so I could try and be there!

Well hell, show up anyway even if you miss part of the first period!

Cali, Is that the american direct out of LAX? We have had some pretty good luck getting in on time as long as there is not fog in Texas where it originates from.

...Really?
What if I told you that MAF was standing on his head and the Jackets were coming home 1-1?

Not sure about everyone else, but I'm guessing at some point, MAF will go MAF. If he does, this series really turns in our favor.

i'm a fan of
And calling on the owner to help is like whispering in the wind. When Lemieux was a player, he single-handedly built and preserved the player-friendly country club culture of the Pittsburgh Penguins.

For our sake, I hope the writer is correct and the Pens ARE arrogant. Arrogant enough to believe Columbus just got lucky and their vast excess of talent will surely be enough to win the series without breaking a sweat. I wouldn't count on that.

That said, it's funny to watch so many Pens fans take the bait of this writer. Throw out some red beat, piss some people off, get them talking. Oldest trick in the sports talk book.
