I've sat in the next-to-last row without issue. Plus you're getting playoff atmosphere. You can't go wrong, old friend.

True. Just mean when comparing to 300 level, is the view clear and all? Definitely going, just trying to pick which seats (and price)

I'm not 100% sure if it's the same thing, but my favourite seats are in that top row where they have the little buffet set up. There's a reason why the media, GMs, and scouts sit so high up. You get a view of the whole ice. You see everything. I've sat right behind the visitors bench, and it was amazing, but your view is really limited. I love the nosebleeds.

308, row K. Price was right and its center ice so still should see everything.

Please WIN!!!!!

Thanks for the advice. I'd prob do 400 level but the price was a little too steep for me.

Brent Wallace: Chris Neil on the ice this morning

I thought level 400 was only the suites. You get two rows of seats at the front, and standing/walking area behind. View is not obstructed at all. Players look a little small (this is probably why Cole confuses Karlsson and Gonchar -- hasn't figure out his left from his right); but you can really see how a play develops -- especially if you are one of the ends.

Did they convert some 400 suites to blocks of seats?

A reason to listen to Rome: Alfie will be on at 1PM.

That's fine, Benoit was very good last game.

He sure was!

Last two.

He rocked Iginla to set up the 3rd goal in G2 (didn't get an assist but was instrumental), then assisted on the winner in G3.

Oh yeah, I forgot he played 2 now.

Chris Neil is to "ready to go" as he is is to WIN.

Funny, I don't think Neil said anything untoward about the hit, yet Orpik seemed yo take exceptions:

"I was going down and I was in a vulnerable position and he gave me an extra shove, which I picked up speed going into the boards," Neil explained on Tuesday. "It is what it is. It's playoff hockey. It's one of those things if he's in that situation I probably would have shoved him there, but it is what it is. The way he plays, he plays a physical game and I don't expect anything less from him."

If anything, almost sounds like he admires him for what he does.

Then Orpik responds:

"My response is it's very laughable coming from him," he told reporters on Tuesday.

"I thought it was a pretty harmless play. I didn't even know he didn't return. He's done his fair share of things to me and everybody else in here. We all know how he plays and he's a guy who plays hard and he's a competitive guy. Everybody knows how he plays. He's out there to agitate and I don't have much to say about it. He gets away with a lot - let's put it that way."

I don't get it. Maybe it's due to this (which I don't really understand):

"It's playoffs - your intensity is high out there. Tying to finish checks, you see a guy down. Put it this way - I wouldn't have done that to him to out him in the situation. I'm just lucky I'm no worse for wear and I'm lucky to keep going.

If someone could translate the bolded part for me I'd appreciate it.

Earlier Neil says "I probably would have shoved him there" and now he's saying else? Or something the same? Or did the article writer make typo -- maybe Neil said "I probably wouldn't have shoved him there"? Or maybe ...

I'm confused.

Why don't they just line up at center ice and beat the crap out of each other, and whoever is bleeding less wins, and the other guy gets to keep his mouth shut.

Neil got a reaction out of the Pens, always a good thing. No way anyone believes Neil doesn't take that same shot but guess what? No one cares either, just the Pens obviously. Mind games.

The mindfucking continues...
