SurlyPIG Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 I'm so bummed my Flames lost. :( :'(Well...me and my buddy and some others went to the Saddledome to watch game seven. They just set up some screens and you watch the game for a $5 tickety, the proceeds for which go to the food bank. It was intense. All but the bleeders were packed with noisy red fans. The crowd was riled to start. Flags everywhere, horns going off left right and center, and one dude brought his trumpet and led the the "CHARGE!" cheer. And all for an away game. It was sightly subdued after Fedotenko's first goal, but not by much. It got eerily quiet after the second goal by TB, but the last 8-10-ish minutes just had so much more energy on the ice, and it was infectious. After Conroy's goal the place was psychotic. The whole place gasped on Jordan Leopold's rebound but he was robbed by the Bulin Wall. :( It was still well worth going though. No riots, no vandalism, everyone was in a good spirits (you European footballers could learn a lesson from Flames fans :P)Of course it didn't help my mood that I had to write to exams and an essay today... >:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard3000 Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Yes, it's always neat to go to those away games at the arena. I would have went to the Sens/Leafs game 7 at the Corel Centre had I not been working.Ninja: As much as I want to agree with you, I think it was a good call. It didn't look like it completely crossed the line to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Don't worry, the Stanley cup is coming to Canada.Like to PEI, where we are having Brad Richards day declared by the premier. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja_Sher Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Don't worry, the Stanley cup is coming to Canada.Like to PEI, where we are having Brad Richards day declared by the premier. :)Richards played for Bay so his efforts are for them and the Stanley Cup is theirs. If you want the cup then make a PEI ( marytimers would be a good nickname what do you think? ) be team and then you could hire Richards and Lecli and Marton and then give it a shot.Of course by that time Richards and others would be too old too play and would be rendered useless. So try making it quickly as we need as much team as we can ( From Canda ) to reach the playoffs. 16 Canadian teams reaching playoffs would be the perfect number for us to get back the cup.

Andrew Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 It's Maritimers, not Marytimers :PYes Atlantic Canada needs an NHL team.And each player gets to take the cup to their hometown for a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanguard3000 Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 Whatever they are always Merry, he he ;D.In that case, it's Merrytimers, not Marytimers. Yuk yuk yuk!I don't know if it's the Penguins who'll be moving (although they did suck pretty royally this season), but I did hear similar rumours. I'd prefer it if one of the more neglected teams, like Carolina (who often didn't even have half of their arena filled). Of course, it could just be wishful thinking.Personally, I'd like to see the return of the Renfrew Millionaires. Booyah.Go... uh... 'Naires! Yeah!

SurlyPIG Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Wow...We had twice as many people at our rally for the Flames than Tampa did at their rally for the Lightning and we didn't even win the cup...You know your large market strategy is a failure when...

Ninja_Sher Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Why did the Tampa even have to win. They do not have even sufficient number of suporters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 Why did the Tampa even have to win. They do not have even sufficient number of suporters.Technically it is that most of them do not know what hockey is or how it is played. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
