At least the fans would be slightly more classy than the Philly/NY fans this year, so I guess you're right. On that note, I'm not saying that I wouldn't go to the game.

 

And I'm not saying I wouldn't pee on a bunch of cars with Ontario plates...

And then there were Philly fans...

 

Saw the same stuff at Wrigley against Detroit.

 

We had the first and best Ice Bowl ever*, and it will always be the best one ever. Let's enjoy that, and let the league take it around.

 

 

*Yeah, I know about that thing up in Edmonton. Still, when they wanted to make it regular, they started HERE.

It seemed to me like there was a force out there trying to will the Flyers into a tie. Yet, the hockey gods said no.

 

In real time, I didn't see anything conclusive to justify the penalty shot. In replays, it still didn't seem justifiable, but believable.

 

The missed spearing call was blatant, and that's why there is 4 sets of eyes out there. The call giving the Flyers the PP was dumb, and I saw NO reason why they gave Callahan the matching penalty.

 

A lot of good hits, good play by both teams. Great for Rupp. Lundquist stood on his head.

 

Terrible display by the fans, booing the Canadian anthem, and hearing the various curses and cursing chants.

 

Another game with annoying play calling by Emrich. More useless rants and drivel and stories spilling out of his mouth while gameplay was going on.

Tortorella fine is 30k.

 

Worth it?

Definitely not. I missed the pitchfork, but the penalty shot and holding the stick were good calls.

The guy who got knocked out was a cop and soldier.

Sabres fans are still worse...

Philly fans are bad, but I'd still take them over Buffalo fans if I had the choice. I know someone who's THREE YEAR OLD DAUGHTER was cussed out by a Buffalo fan after the game the other day because she had a Canes jersey on.

Well what do Canes fans want? Once their kids are too old to eat the only thing you can do is yell at them for being born. Duh.

 

Nah, they just need to simmer longer...

Since this threads about the Winter Classic, rumors going around that next years could be Leafs/Wings at Michigans stadium where they held the college outdoor game, and they want to break attendance of over 100,000 fans.
