So the NHL is taking over the Devils
230mil in debt

Reading into it now. Owner missed the first payment in restructured loan. NHL needs to gut the management, no reason for them to be in that shape.

 

[Marvie_3]

Seriously wtf....move them to Quebec City!

Goddamn league keeps taking over these teams in debt when there are other markets more viable. I didn't see them doing this for fucking Wpg or Quebec City. But so long as the team is in the states and allowed to lose money they get fycking stupid trying to keep them there.

If the league fought hard for 4 years to keep Phoenix where it is, there's no fucking way they're moving the Devils. They need an ownership change ASAP.

 

[T.M. MacReady]

No way they'd move the Devils if they managed to keep the Yotes in Phoenix.


Amazing how much debt they're in though. I feel like they'll find an owner. Its a good team with recent championships and a great building, despite being in shitty Newark.

 

[Curufinwe]

What a shame.

bttmn pls

 

[ShaneB]

Fix is in for a Yotes vs Devils final. Book it!

 

[yyzjohn]

Antropov is KHL bound.

Joins his buddy Ponikarovsky, can Grabovski be far behind?

 

[Osorio]

The debt is from the arena and our owner who made his money off the Lehmann Brothers lost a lot of his war chest during the recession. It's not from a lack of interest or whatever.

Either way the owner of the Sixers is already interested in buying the team.

This ain't anything like Phoenix fellas.

How many games at the Rock have you gone to?

I'm pretty sure the universe would have collapsed if that happened.

1 month away from hockey.

Preseason schedule.

I've been to two. Had good seats and thought it was a nice building both times.

Then again, I've been going to games at the Coliseum for over 20 years, so my opinion is tainted by the barn I usually frequent.

WATCH OUT FOR THAT BEAR GEORGE LARAQUE!!

Word is SSE (panther parent company) is getting bought out. Since Viner bought out Cohen he became a "special partner" not outright chairman like Cohen. Word was he was trying to get more hockey people to buy out the entertainment people in SSE. This could be what is happening.

 

[Red_Man]

That is some deep soul burning hate for a player if you get him being attacked tattooed on your body, god damn.

I'm just saying the neighborhood around the Rock is way better for pre-game festivities than Hempstead or even at the Barclays Center. If you get past the fact that you're in Newark it's a great location.

If the stadium was in Weequahic or Valisburg or something I'd understand but it's downtown next to the Ironbound.

 

[Cake Boss]

Ok fine.

Man I fucking hated Jabberjaw.

 

[TemplaerDude]

Happy birthday, Acid! Ima smoke a fattie for you.

 

[wsoxfan1214]

Happy bday, Acid.

 

[BigJonsson]

NHL will just tell more Devils players to go to the KHL

ah, in that aspect, I've never been able to explore the area around it, no. Maybe next time i'll try to get there earlier.

Barclays is gonna be interesting. No tailgating is gonna be a huge bummer.

Anybody who goes to newark for a game goes straight to the Rock and then straight back to their cars/train.

NHL thread on page 2?

NOT ON MY WATCH!

Happy birthday Acid!
Happy world cat day Kave_man

Stop trying to overshadow Tweet Like Ovi Day, Acid!

Also, happy birthday.

TOR's Finn makes it 1-0 Canada. Set up from Lazar.

I think I am going to be sick.

Nah. If you do then you're probably a Rangers fan or a paranoid suburbanite.

It would be a better location if it wasn't yuppie city. The 4th Ave strip is filled with expensive bars filled with strollers.

The only places I go around there is Cherry Tree on 4th and Dean and Hank's Saloon on 3rd and Atlantic

 

[apocalidiot]

Happy cat day Kave Man

 

[KingHenrik30]

Or just a normal person not looking to get stabbed or raped. You know, one of those things.

So you're a paranoid suburbanite.

 

[brucewaynegretzky]

So you're a paranoid suburbanite.

Pretty much. Except there really ISN'T very much to do around the Rock....

 

[KingHenrik30]

So you're a paranoid suburbanite.

I don't live in the subburbs. Stop trying to make Newark out to be something it's not, which is a rotten cesspool shit hole

Pretty much. Except there really ISN'T very much to do around the Rock....

There are some things to do, Buy drugs, sell drugs, buy hookers, knife fights....actually on second thought that doesn't sound too bad.

You may as well just give us Lazar now, hes tainted

:looooool

Fucale was really impressive. Moving side to side well, squaring up pucks, reading the play quickly.

Bueno.

Johnny Mnemonic was set in Newark, so I've always been afraid of it from afar.
