They should shut up an be glad they still have a team.

Oh please.  Complaining about your team's performance is part of being a fan. It's part of being glad you have a team.

The Bostonification of fandom.  "What does not kill me makes me whiney."

Yeah, we definitely have a lock on that market. ::rolleyes::

Y'ever listen to sports radio in Philly?  No way Boston has a lock on the whiney market.  :-D

And then there's the Mets.::yark::

I'm long since past complaining about the Mets.  My expectations are so low that I'm genuinely excited at the prospect of breaking 70 wins next year.  They may just pull it off.

Another benefit of their ineptitude will be the availability of choice seats at Citi Field; of course the pricing won't reflect the quality of the product, but that's another story.

Stubhub is your friend.  Seats were dirt cheap toward the end of last season.

Seats are always dirt cheap right before the game when they aren't selling out. I think the team dumps their extras on stubhub and underbids the lowest available to (a) get something for the unsold tix and (b) get people to the stadium buying beer and merch.

Sure, but you can't always find premium seats for 25% of face value a week before the game like you could for the Mets last fall.

We are agreeing.

My misunderstanding, then.

It'd be a shame if cordiality and agreement put a stop to all these nested quotes.

No it wouldn't.

Yes it would.

Close enough for a "when to pull the goalie" thread since I can't find the thread that with that discussion (BU/Jack Parker/etc).

In tonight's UNO-UM-Duluth game, with UNO down 4-2 with just over 6 min left in the 3rd and a 4 v 4 skater situation, UNO pulls their goalie.

They are controlling the puck in Duluth's zone and the linesmen notice that there are 5 skates for UNO and blows the whistle for a too many men on the ice. OOOPS. They didn't notice and obviously weren't expecting UNO to be pulling the goalie given the time/situation.

Dean Blais almost blew a gasket with that whistle. UNO continued playing with the extra skater until UM-Duluth got an ENG with about 4 min (?) or so left.

UM_D tacks on another (with UNO goalie's in net) to make it 6-2 and extends their winning streak to 17 games.

I think Mayotte must be having a positive impact, as it seems that Iles is scrambling around far less than last year, or even at the beginning of the season.

[css228]

I think Mayotte must be having a positive impact, as it seems that Iles is scrambling around far less than last year, or even at the beginning of the season.

Definitely, he's out of position far less often this year.

[Cop at Lynah]

Out of poistion alot tonight - reverting back to the flopping around on his stomach.  D-men saved two sure goals for him - not a good night for Andy through 2 periods.  He needs to be the difference in the 3rd for CU to hold on.

[MotherPucker]

Iles HAS been the difference so far in this game...  not sure what game you are watching but both goals allowed were the result of rebounds off saves that were Iles doing his job...  Defensive letdowns and good bounces for Dartmouth are more the culprit then Andy having to scramble.  He has made some outstanding saves to keep this game close, as well as an amazing paddle down save before the second Dartmouth goal.  Stay out of the box and be more disciplined and we wouldn't be seeing some of these gaffs.
