He most certainly is not. Aside from myself (fan for 20 years), there is a couple that sit next to me in their 50's and 2 guys in their 60's in front of me. None of them are at all happy with this decision.

Anyway its unbelievably evident why "fan groups" like the Diablos will never work.
As this thread proves, We all hate each other
Oh well, if the team wins we wont give a **** in the end even though we are all *****ing on both sides right now

I seriously dislike the "You Suck" crowd. Never have yelled it, never will.
I've had DEVILS fans thrown out for cursing repeatedly in front of families/younger fans after being asked, repeatedly, to not do so. I'm not saying I'm perfect, but some of the crap that families have to put up with is just unacceptable.
To add to the above: I definitely hate most Devils fans and I'm not shy to not say it. I've said it plenty before. Overall, for better or worse, we're an over-expecting, over-privileged, young, immature, ungrateful fan base.

I didnt and would never "booo"
But I also think people need to understand they are not booing the goal, they are booing the song, and the fact it was changed.

QFT. I can't wait until, like last year, this BS dies down. Especially while the boys are rolling to start the season.

Selfish? Sure. Are we not all being somewhat selfish when purchasing entertainment? Besides that, the vast majority of the fans are on my side of this argument. I guess that makes the majority of our fan base selfish in your eyes.
And how is it childish? I paid for a product and am expressing my opinion of said product. If the arena and entertainment aren't a part of the entire experience, then why did we even bother leaving the meadowlands?
Wow. We don't have that kind of time to devote to this. Basically, $$$ and the NJSEA is corrupt, and the at-the-time leader of the NJSEA HATES hockey with a serious passion.

You don't like a twenty-second goal song so you're going to boo it when the team scores? The fact you don't like the song shouldn't override cheering for the team. You're there to watch a hockey team win, not a concert. Do you boo every single song in the in-game rotation you don't like?
Again there are better ways to protest WITHOUT ruining the in-game for those who are there to watch hockey and cheer their team. Or making the players wonder wtf is going on in their own arena. Besides all the protesting in the world (the boos, the e-mails, the social media) didn't change it back last year, give up the ghost already people! How long are you guys planning to boo, the next five years? Ten? GIVE...IT...UP!

As a STH, I have recommended a Family seating section prior to building of the Prudential Center.

Seriously, if this is THAT much of an issue for you, don't go to the games. Put your money where your mouth is. Punish the franchise for ignoring your demands as a paying customer.
Naturally we're not seeing that...because deep down they know this is not worth missing out on watching their favorite team. So instead they pay their money, show up to the games, and embarass themselves by booing after a goal is scored. Typical bratty spoiled NJD fans.

Look, in the interest of what njdevsfn95 said, truce...
I realize you're of a different mind on this and we're just going to agree to disagree.
The bottom line is, I realize there's something of a civil disobedience drive in some people that irks the hell out of me. I'd like to think we're unified in a reason to cheer the first goal at the Rock this year, but there are some who are waiting, instead, to boo and "You Suck" your way through an awkward refrain. One way or the other, it will peter out before long and be replaced with some new normal. I just tire of the tug-of-war between this vocal group of fans and management...

No one is forcing you to pay for the product. Save your money and time if you don't like it...if you're not willing to go that far then you're really in no position to complain.
Is anyone that delusional that they think booing the song will have the team pull a 180? I mean, really.

Show Me What You Got!
Seconded. And Jesus at worst we will be 4-1 on Saturday with a team that looks way better then the mess that was last year.
If it bothers people THAT much then don't financially support the team by going. It's that simple. If you choose to go then try and enjoy the damn experience.
We got this new projection system that should make for epic pre game shows. We got new food venders that will hopefully not suck and we have a good on ice product!
So let's all just let sleeping dogs lie and go and have an awesome opening night for our favorite team who is also currently undefeated.

Sadly it seems that way. After all of last year when people booed, wrote letters and protested five hundred different ways apparently the message still hasn't sunk in that these guys are not backing down and the song is gone for good. Chanting YS with all the new songs is childish at best, and something that is getting harder to explain to people each song removed from RR2.

Seriously, anyone who would rather not go can gladly provide me with their tickets. I'd love to use them!

As would I. I would love to save a few bucks Saturday haha. I'm debating whether I should hold off until after the game tonight to purchase. I don't want to jinx the team tonight. Haha

It will be again after another 30 posts
Although unfortunately the goal song thing is going to be in every thread for the next couple days...maybe we should just bump up/create a new single thread for it
I will boooo if you do that !

Also it's a very soccer-ish concept. And soccer isn't the NHL
I have had 2 instances where I was forced to sit near the diablos and found the experience very irritating. When I buy tix I make sure I'm at least 2 sections away
Everybody is different. Sometimes when I'm popping in from work on Wednesday to see Panthers-Devs, I don't feel like acting like a lunatic all game. I just want to unwind with a beer and enjoy the game.
But during a mid season weekend game against the Rags, sure I might get a bit loud and passionate.
That's the way most people are I feel.
