Can someone with the NHL Network see if they are showing the Devils game? Center Ice says it is supposed to be on but it isn't and I don't have NHL Network. This sucks having to merely listen to history being made after the money I spent to freakin' watch the games live. . .

3/17/2009 7:14:38 PM

It is on NHL Network and the Devils just went up 2-0

3/17/2009 7:16:36 PM

Yeah, I just bought the "digital sports" thing for $3.25 . . . Oh well. Game on!

3/17/2009 7:18:08 PM

red wings on in 12 minutes!!!!!

everyone enjoy the show they put on

3/17/2009 7:19:08 PM

It's worth it IMO. I do think it's bullshit how they don't show games on Center Ice when they show it on NHLN, ESPECIALLY this one since I don't think it was originally even supposed to be on NHLN. But, it's a pretty good channel. I watch On the Fly basically every night and often catch the replay of NHL Live when I get home from work.

3/17/2009 7:19:42 PM

^^ Only if it involves them on fire or their bus flying off a cliff.

I don't mind the expenditure for NHL Network honestly. I love watching Hockey Night in Canada on Saturday nights when I am at a place that doesn't have Center Ice. Yeah, looking at the guide this game wasn't supposed to be here but rather on Center Ice. I am just glad that I get to watch it from the Devils' side.

3/17/2009 7:26:23 PM

Oh hell yeah. Tomorrow night is going to be nuts. I know the Canes need the points but I can't pass up the chance to cheer for Zach Parise and Patrick Elias.

3/17/2009 7:27:24 PM

eeek good luck with that.... yea devils are a solid program though
i only dont like them due to they rival detroit for being the most consistent and strong program year in and year out for the last 15... but they are very respectable

Gerber throws Temper Tantrum

Quote :

"TORONTO -- Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Martin Gerber received an automatic three-game suspension from the NHL on Wednesday for abusing referee Mike Leggo. Gerber was tossed with 56 seconds remaining in Tuesday's 3-2 shootout win over the Washington Capitals after he pushed Leggo and shot a puck in his direction. The actions violated rule 41.4, which calls for an automatic suspension. Gerber was upset after Brooks Laich's goal made it 2-2. The Capitals forward stuffed the puck under Gerber, prompting the Toronto goalie to protest. Gerber will miss Friday's game at Buffalo; March 28 against Boston; and April 1 against Philadelphia. He's eligible to return April 3 when the Leafs visit the Flyers."

3/26/2009 4:28:19 PM

no way that goal should've counted

no way he should get suspended for a tiny little bump on a referee

and to argue that he shot that puck at leggo is ridiculous

but cujo looked great in the shootout, he read ovechkin like a book

3/26/2009 5:14:35 PM

after looking at that replay several times i think it should've counted. the puck was loose between his legs, and the first poke puts it in, the second poke pushed gerber in, and had the puck gone in then, no goal.

but from my view the puck went in after the first initial poke.

that being said, if i was gerber i would still argue that all day long

3/26/2009 7:19:01 PM

granted, it's a low-res video, but i see no conclusive evidence there that the puck is over the line before his leg's going with it

and there's no way in hell leggo saw it from standing in front and to the side of gerber

3/26/2009 7:44:11 PM

haha well,

after looking at it again its the tip of the capitals stick blade that i saw and not the puck

i have no damn clue what went on there, can only hope that the booth review made the right call.

"Death Threats Made A central Ohio man has been arrested and charged with inducing panic and menacing after placing at least three threatening phone calls to the Blue Jackets – specifically goaltender Steve Mason – during Thursday’s win over Calgary, The Dispatch has learned. According to the Columbus police report, Peter Stenzel, 52, was wearing a Calgary Flames t-shirt when he was arrested at his residence -- 6115 O'Sweeney Lane on the Northwest side. He remains in police custody pending his arraignment at 9 a.m. Saturday. “They got his number from caller ID, and it was given to special duty officers,” Columbus police Sgt. Rich Weiner said. “When they got to his resident, he was upset. He’s a passionate hockey fan.” The phone calls were placed between 7:45 p.m. and 8:11 p.m., roughly the end of the first period and the start of the second. The calls set off a hectic response behind the scenes in Nationwide, with special duty officers placed around all of the arenas entrances. “One phone call might not be taken seriously, it might not generate much of a response,” Weiner said. “But when you make two or three calls and is threatening bodily harm, we’re going to take it very seriously." Sources said Stenzel threatened to “shoot” and “bomb” Mason during the game. Inducing panic is a first-degree misdemeanor. Menacing is a fourth-degree misdemeanor. The Blue Jackets would only confirm the incident. “There was an incident and it’s been referred to NHL security,” Blue Jackets general manager Scott Howson said. “I don’t want to comment further.” Mason did not take part in the post-game "three stars" salute to the fans as a security precaution. After the game, he was whisked out of the dressing room by Howson after meeting only briefly with the media."
