gruven 530 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Cheered or booed? Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Booed but should be cheered. Shocked Phil hasn't contacted me about a ticket for the game, since we are such good friends after hanging out once. Lol 1 Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Cheered! Link to post Share on other sites
gruven 530 Posted October 30, 2015 Author Share Posted October 30, 2015 Conversation yesterday: Him: How many tickets you need for the game? Me: Two. Him: Who's coming? Me: I dunno, maybe my buddy Zach that you met. He's a big pens fan. Him: Tickets are $400 each. Me: I'm coming alone. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I'm torn. I think he should be cheered for his overall work , but booed for his last 6 month effort. Perceived or not. Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I'd bet Phil scores! Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Leafs are scoring more goals without Kessel, than Penguins with Kessel, Crosby, malkin and jäger ghost. Link to post Share on other sites
FCP Bob 1,312 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 You forgot to put up a third option. Both booed and cheered. Link to post Share on other sites
MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I'm guessing it would have been badly booed, if they didnt see how bad this team is doing record wise now and realize, with or without him, the team is brutal and was in need of the current rebuild. I'll say mixture of both. Link to post Share on other sites
MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I'd bet Phil scores! I keep betting that too. Link to post Share on other sites

Zach6668 513 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I keep betting that too. Well he scores in two straight games before yesterday! And he's still on pace for more than 30 lol Link to post Share on other sites
gruven 530 Posted October 30, 2015 Author Share Posted October 30, 2015 Well he scores in two straight games before yesterday! And he's still on pace for more than 30 lol Did you watch last night? I think he and malkin are starting to figure it out. Link to post Share on other sites
MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Did you watch last night? I think he and malkin are starting to figure it out. I watched quite a bit of that game. A few very nice plays between them, they seem to be meshing. I liked Erreys commentary after a particularly crazy shift...."If you dont see that Malkin+Kessel have something going on right now....well, well......you're just not watching!" He struggled to come up with an analogy, then just gave up. Link to post Share on other sites

He struggled to come up with an analogy, then just gave up. I thought before the season started that Malkin and phil would be a better fit than crosby and phil. Crosby is a north south player, and so is phil. Malkin is east west. He creates space with the way he moves that gives Phil lots of areas to jump into. (That may have been the worse grammatical sentence I've typed in a long time). Link to post Share on other sites

Is it true that visiting players always have to pay for tickets for family/friends when they come to Toronto? When my buddy's cousin played in the NHL, we always paid for our tickets to watch him in Toronto (I never have an issue paying for my own tickets) but when he plays in Buffalo we got as many as we wanted.

Every ticket is paid for. No freebies. Link to post Share on other sites

Babying 613 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 yes. Every ticket is paid for. No freebies. Except the Leafs players get 2 tickets? I remember I had Garbovski's tickets for a Minny game about 3-4 years ago. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I had another CBA question that you can probably answer, Chris. Do players get per diems on the road? If so, I assume this must be standardized so that no one team can offer more, so I'm curious how much it is. Link to post Share on other sites
