    Devils Goal Song

    in Hell

    Posted

    I agree that R&R pt 2 has some history, but I feel like the song is tainted now with the "You Suck" chant (Except when the Rangers are in the house - lol).

    They should track down some unknown NJ artist and make them a hit - just like I never heard of the Fratellis before the playoffs.

    I think with the changes this year, now would be a great time to change some of the stale aspects of the experience for those of us who have been going to games year after year.

    It was 30 years ago today! "Potvin Sucks"

    Who knew? It was 30 years ago tonight that the "Potvin Sucks" chant was born.

    Here's an article about it:

    I just read through the entire (admittedly a little long) story. I'm surprised that even though the Devils were mentioned, the author didn't mention the "Rangers Suck" chant that we stole from them. I thoroughly enjoy that chant at the Rock and even more the addition of "Gomez Blows" afterwards.

    I did learn the name of the song that precedes the "Rangers/Potvin Sucks!":

    Funny stuff.

    MSG+ 2 on Dish??

    Sometimes overflow channels don't "show up" until games start. For example the overflow on my Comcast will not be listed in the TV listing but when game starts the game will be on that channel instead of whatever is listed. I'd just go check out the channel at game time and it'll probably be there if it's listed as the overflow.

    Thanks for your replies... I know they should be in the 440 range, and I know they sometimes don't show up until game time. I wasted 45 minutes of my life with a spastic Dish Network "tech support" rep during a game back in November trying all kinds of different channels.

    What happens is that I put in 449 (for example), and it goes to the next highest channel number (454 if I remember correctly). There is no blackout warning or "check back" message.

    OK, I was just going to live with this, since I go to most of the games anyway... However, tomorrow's game (Marty's return) is on Overflow... Wouldn't ya know? I've been back and forth with both Dish and MSG and neither of them can tell me why I cannot watch any overflow games. Does anyone else have this problem?

    Bueller?

    According to MSG's Overflow listing, the game should be on Channel 449 on Dish. That channel is a no show...

    I just called Dish Network and was on the phone for 35 minutes with some idiot who kept apologizing. He had me trying all these channels that I knew weren't going to work.

    Can anyone else with Dish Network see the game tonight? Or, is it just me that's f'ed?

    This is annoying! I pay for Center Ice and for all the regional sports channels. I can watch 12 other games except the one I want to watch!!

    V Day promotion?

    Feb. 13th - Women 18 and older can sign up for a chance to win a diamond ring

    Feb. 15th - Devils baseball cap

    ...and thats about it.. so basically the only V-Day promotion is the 13th, and its not really a promotion; more like a lottery.

    Yea, some promotion... ;-) Not even worth mentioning. At least I'll get a cap on Sunday. ;-) (She's not going to that game!) hahaha

    Anyone record the game on 12/7?

    in Hell

    Posted

    Before I left for the game, I couldn't find the freakin channel that the game would be on. No problem, I thought... I'll just record the game at 12:30 am. Problem is, they only had the actual game on - no footage of the pregame ceremonies with Scotty, or the postgame ceremonies. Postgame, I was one of those dudes that I've always made fun of in the background trying to get on TV... Still haven't seen it.

    Anyway, if anyone has a recording of it and can send me a tape or DVD or something, please PM me. I've got tons of footage I can trade...

    I am so psyched about this game... I'll be bringing my 2 year old son to his first live hockey game!

    He's been watching games, and I've been quizzing him on players, and even Gretzky. I asked him the other day who we're going to see on Saturday and he said Wayne Gretzky... lol

    He's also been asking Santa for ice skates.

    Chico Comment from Last Night

    This reminds me...

    I ran into Chico last year while walking around the arena with a couple of buddies after a dismal game by the Devils. I'm not going to look it up, but I think Marty gave up 6 goals and was yanked from the game. The Devils lost like 7-1 or something.

    Anyway, we're wandering around and ran into Chico and started up a conversation while he was signing autographs for us. He mentioned something like "Marty had a stinker today, eh?" I "buddy punched" him on the shoulder and said "Oh, come on - you know what it's like to give up 6 goals, don't ya?" He glares at me, says "Get the hell away from me - no autograph for you!" A couple seconds later he was laughing at it, though.

    That was hilarious, and he played it just right - nice guy!

    Anyone else having problems watching the game?

    It's blacked out on FSNY / Dish Network. I couldn't watch the game last night cause of Vs, now I can't watch the game tonight!!

    WTF???

    I called Dish and they said "it's on their blackout list and unfortunately, there's nothing we can do about it."

    Division Champs tshirts?

    Apparently they *WERE* on NHL.com, but have since been removed. They have the other 5 divisional winners, just not the Devils.

    Yea, everywhere I look, they are "out of stock"...

    I smell a conspiracy!!!

    Can we gloat yet???!!!!!

    I made a mistake early in the season - after the Rangers got off to such a good start. I said it wouldn't last, and the Rangers would be in last place by New Year's. The Ranger fans kept shoving that in my face, as they continued to be in first place throughout the season.

    Now, it's definitely gloat time! They didn't even finish in first place.

    HAH!

    Can we gloat yet???!!!!!

    There will be plenty of gloating here.

    There is only one team in the league that I don't like... And the team that I do like just dominated them.

    For me, that's a perfect recipe for gloating.
