I'd make a joke about hoping AJ doesn't get injured during the puck drop but well...

See they are keeping the sequential line together (16-17-18)

It's the "seqs" line for short.

I have no idea who AJ Pollock is and I don't know much about his groin troubles. I do hope the Diamondbacks are relocated to Las Vegas before the Coyotes have to leave town. Vegas or LA can have the Suns and Cardinals, too. This town should have just the Coyotes as a pro sports team. The rest can all leave tomorrow.

A decade ago I was in Dallas. We went to a local arena thinking we were going to a rodeo (just to soak in the Texas culture). Much to our surprise it wasn't the rodeo. It was normally rodeo night but they had a special event in town. A circus...a Shriner circus. I'm talking about trained house cats doing tricks. Thankfully we got in for free because I was wearing a Chicago Fire jersey and the rube selling tickets thought I was a fireman and let us in for free.

Tomorrow night I'm going to a local arena expecting to see a hockey game. But I don't think the talent on display will be at the level of trained house cats and I won't get in for free. I'll probably be wishing it were a Shriner circus again.

Praise be to Tim Bits. There will be light at the end of this tunnel.

But I don't think the talent on display will be at the level of trained house cats...

Bit of an exaggeration don't you think?

In professional sports, I think the difference between the first and last place teams is often quite small, which is why any team can beat any team on any given day.

If there really was a huge difference making money betting on games would be easy.

Man, I can't wait till tonight
I just loaded up my car, put the parking pass in the window and am ready to roll in just a few hours!!!!!
NHL hockey in my city!!!
Wonder if an octopus will be involved tonight.
probably purchased at Fry's by a Red Wing fan who also goes to all the other games in his city because he lives here and wants to support NHL hockey in his city.
It will be a mild diversion from those shovel girls if he throws it on the ice at that time.
Did you read that twitter war from something Bickley wrote about what it would take to make fans care about the Coyotes?
I like his articles and agreed with the one he wrote about the Yotes recently.
But, I sat next to him at a game.
he left in the middle of third period of a tie game that we won in overtime.

What's the deal with Teemu Pulkinnen? Scored in his first and only game with team, hasn't been back since. Anyone know?

Thats what I was wondering. I think Pulkki deserves another shot over Duke honestly. Maybe this isn't the game he should play, but he should get in soon.

 

[GiveAFlyingPuck]

The Coyotes are undefeated so far in the tournament of suck.

Beat #28 New Jersey, #30 Colorado, LA(because they suck in general), and tonight they square off against #27 Detroit.

Mr. Schedulemaker knew what he was doing.

 

[PerpetualTankYear]

Ha. 69.

 

[moosemeister]

Ask and we shall receive. Duke out, Pulkki in.

 

[_Del_]

Wouldn't want to sit critical members of our future like Jooris, McGinn, or Holland. *sigh*

 

[Shaman464]

Wings fan here in peace. I just moved to the city and wanted to ask, if there is anything I should know about getting to the game? Parking? Things to do around the arena, etc?

Ignore the signs and traffic detail directing you to paid parking lots. Park near the AMC for free.

Yard House has a decent beer selection and good food if you're looking to eat or drink before the game. It will fill up early, though. Multiple alternatives for grub and drink.

 

[Dirty Old Man]

Ha. 69.

... we got in for free because I was wearing a Chicago Fire jersey and the rube selling tickets thought I was a fireman and let us in for free.

Hahaha.
I also appreciate the Goon shoutout.

I will be at Saturday's game because the preceeding career fair's registration included a ticket to the game. Tonight... I may have the game on in the background (I want to invest more in the team, but nah).

Jooris deserves to be playing. Holland probably deserves a seat in the press box but won't happen until Burmi is healthy.

Can we send Duclair to the Rush? I think he's a bust for the rest of this season and didn't do too well in Tucson when he was playing there; even his shootout attempt looked like half an effort.

I hope he can bounce back, but I think that's doubtful on our roster or in Tucson (this season).

 

[Bonsai Tree]

It won't stunt the team's development to sit Duclair in favor of Pulkki. This is such a mountain made out of a mole hill. I believe that Jooris has been more of a factor in the Coyotes good play than Duclair by quite a margin. I wouldn't sit Jooris in favor of some roster manipulation that would allow Duclair and Pulkki in at the same time.

Unfortunately, all names you mentioned are out playing Duke or play a different position. *sigh*

Go to more games than the one a year the Wings are in town.
