totally agree - the kids with the drums were an excellent touch. clark still was obvious, but not constant.

I hope they bring those kids back, it should replace the mascots drum since he can never keep a steady beat haha

Was kind of hoping they would keep the CAA goal horn for tonight's game.

Well people complaining about Kevin Clark better get used to the peppy stuff, cause it seems to work for this crowd. We've had playoff games in this building before but from all accounts these two have been the loudest and most rowdy yet.

Yeah, loved the drums. Hope they bring those kids back for game 6.

No to the CAA goal horn! It jinxed us.

The drums were awesome, loved em.

i was sitting close enough tonight to confirm - the kevin clark stuff is scripted, he's not just doing it on his own...

Either the Devils were superstitious or the NJSEA found out we stole their goal horn and took it back

But yeah, I didn't expect it at Game 3 - it was a pleasant surprise. But after losses in two games, might as well stick with the current one and hope we can make new history with it.

Definitely scripted, but frankly, I don't think it's nearly as bad as everyone's making it out to be. I wasn't there for game 3...did it get toned down for game 4 or is everyone making way too big a deal of this?

When I found out it was scripted I immediately thought of this:



Go fvck yourself, Devils Fans!

It was way, way, way worse in game 3.

It was way, way, way worse in game 3.

Just because of the game situation? It did seem more toned down tonight from what I could hear on TV.

[DJ Eco]

I really really liked the kids on the drums. I hope they keep that going...

Being at both, with the way the game played out it wasn't needed tonight. Obviously the Devils sucked all the energy out of the building after they blew the lead but tonight the crowd was consistent. I remember a couple of times when the Devils started playing music and would switch it off quickly when there was a chant developing and such. Much more natural tonight.

He was just a lot more toned down with the things he was saying and wasn't saying them no were near as much.

We can thank the awesome kids on the drums for that cause they were also leading chants where he would have been saying some stuff like last game.

Same thing goes for when the crowd was doing marty chants and the like cause they even shut the music off for those chants and that would have been him saying stuff in the last game.

So yeah the game situation might have affected what he was saying or someone told him to tone it down. I don't really know what the case was but either way he was way less overbearing compared to game 3.

and they've shut off the musical accompaniment for a little tune we use.... they've been doing it for years now. A little affectionate tune about the Rangers and Flyers haha.

It was unbelieveable in Game 3. It was getting so bad I was kinda waiting for a "shut the fvck up" chant. I mean he must have intervened literally 50 times.

[itsfknnikp]

what was so special about kids w/drums for those of us not in attendance?

But how else would we know when the proper time was to get on our feet and WAVE THOSE TOWELS!!!!! COME ON!! IT WAS OUR LAST CHANCE!!!

(well, I guess the last 12 times was our 'last chance', because he kept saying it like I was going to have deep non-towel-waving regret.)

Nothing special really, it just worked very well cause it was so simple. The kids drumming made it easier for everyone to be on the same page with chants, it was just a nice addition to the game. The mascot always trys to do what they did but he's horrible at keeping a steady beat lol
