Confirmed with Link: RIP NHL Lockout (September 15th 2012 - January 12th 2013)

[Bluenote13]

And even if you did, the league wouldn't make $0.01 off of it. lol

No one involved in the NHL makes any money when I spend $0.00 annually on any NHL product

If you're paying for cable, you're giving money to the NHL.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

if Redden is going to count either way, is he that bad of an option for the 3rd line pairing on defense? probably so lol

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

If you're paying for cable, you're giving money to the NHL.

especially if you're watching on MSG (Rangers station)

You don't even have to watch. If your package includes MSG, that means that part of what you're paying for the package goes to the cable company accessing the station. Same goes for NBC Sports.

I look forward to seeing all the people who said they'd never watch another NHL game for the rest of their lives in the GDT opening night.

 

[Ola]

especially if you're watching on MSG (Rangers station)

Or watching a illegal feed (advertisement)...

I said, I'd never be back, IF they didn't play this season, but they are.. so thankfully I don't have to give it up

 

[Bluenote13]

You need to upgrade, my friend.

My girlfriend is a Bartender, I do alright

You also don't pay twice to watch a game or help raise the price of tickets.

Its obscene to think about the amounts I paid in my younger days. If only the kids now would listen, I'd at least save them from one year of their future kids college tuition.

If you're paying for cable, you're giving money to the NHL.

Lets not go overboard, some things are unavoidable. Plus that to me is peanuts compared to what most fans spend on one or two games let alone seasons.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

We get to watch the Rangers play the Isles/Pens/Flyers/Devils a total of 28 times in the regular season. Out of 48 games.

It's gonna be a wacky season.

 

[Fitzy]

That doesn't help us much, with the strength of the Atlantic.

Isn't it 24 times? 6 games for each.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Isn't it 24 times? 6 games for each.

7 times each.

 

[Clowes Line]

7 times each.

Why is it now 7? It's always been 6.

 

[NYRangers88]

7 times each.

They changed it? What team gets the 4 home games, does it rotate each year?

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

I've seen 7 divisional games per team all over Twitter.

 

[Tawnos]

Why is it now 7? It's always been 6.

I seem to remember it being 8 at one point. The 7 is probably just for this season because there's no good way to split the rest of the season up between the 10 teams in the other two divisions. You can't play those teams 3 times, because it would leave less than 4 games against your divisional rivals.

 

[NYRangers88]

I've seen 7 divisional games per team all over Twitter.

That means 3 out of every 5 games will be against the ATL division. Yikes

Should be some blood for sure.

 

[Pizza]

**** the greedy players and owners. I still remember you, Jacobs and Scottie Upshall and other ******* players.

That said, the precious is back. I loves the precious.

Excellent.

 

[BlueshirtBlitz]

I understand the rule going forward, but I just don't see how they can take a player who's been in our minor league system for years and just place him back on our cap.

Because we can afford to deal with our bad signings since we actually have a successful franchise, and that's unacceptable. Edit- successful monetary wise of course...

 

[Clowes Line]

We're just gonna use our compliance buyout on Redden anyway. I don't see what the big deal is here about him counting against our cap.

Compliance buyouts don't happen until after this season, but it seems that the one-way AHL deals counting against the Cap will count this season.

Of course, the Rangers have $11m available before resigning MDZ, so it really doesn't matter for this year anyway.

 

[Machinehead]

I've been seeing on twitter everywhere from 4 to 7 each within the division. Best to just wait for word directly from the NHL.

 

[silverfish]

48

Sounds like I'll be at Leafs training camp come Saturday... Will be just seven days long with season expected to start on the 19th.
