Ottawa Senators TIDBITS & QUICK HITS!

oh wait I live right near the actual arena lol

One of Elliotte's 30 Thoughtes:

There is some angst among Calgary fans that the Flames are winning too many games, now that they're up to 24th overall. If you're going to bring up your kids, guys you hope will be contributors in the future, you cannot "tank" around them. You can never allow them to think losing is acceptable.

Riprock may not post here anymore, but that's for him.

Why does Alfie always have that terrible red patch on his forehead after games? Can't he get a helmet that fits better without rubbing?

Tight, yes, but I didn't look sunburned when I took it off.

10 minute misconduct for questioning The Alfie.

How many rows are there in the 300s? I'm looking at tickets (just for fun -- remember my lockout pledge -- although I said either this year or this season, and technically it's a new calendar year and the post-season is not the same as the regular season). Anyhow, looking at 300 lower section, tickets came up as row 'P'. How the heck is that "Lower"? Personally I wouldn't consider anything above row 10 as worthy of the premium, but row 'P'? Wow.

Ah, there was a "warning" stating that it could not find that many (looking for 4) in the lower section. But that warning could have been more visible.

This place already has dates/times for the Sens playoff games. Huh?
http://www.gotickets.com/sports/nhl/northeast/ottawa_senators.php

Home Game 1: Friday May 3, 1PM
Home Game 2: Sunday May 5, 1PM

WTH? Dates/times have not been announced yet, have they?

Edit: Nevermind. They also have the date/time for a home game *4*.

Lots of choices for tickets if you're only looking for a pair. Section 310 (faceoff circle) row 'C' for $85, for example. For an extra $10, section 306 (face off circle again, home side) Row 'B'. If you want to splurge a bit, $145 per ticket for a pair of row 'A' in section 214 (corner).

The question right now is, How am I going to watch the playoffs? I don't think NHL Gamecenter operates during the playoffs.

I have tickets for Game 3 and 4 though.

All games should be televised. With Habs/Leafs/Sens/Boston all in... will be interesting to see if there are any collisions. Sens/Habs/Leafs games they could probably stagger on different nights as one of them will be playing each other for sure.
