ESPN is a little slow. :snicker:

WELL????? :eek:


WTF did he say???? :huh:

They are going to roll back ticket prices 6-8% (somebody said to 2000-2001 prices). Hockey decisions will not be made to appease the fans. Other aspects of the arena/game will be changed to appease the fans (concessions, in-game entertainment, jerseys??), they will try to have at least 1 game a year in Rochester, Galisano will pay $25 million to the city if he tries to move the team, Galisano is jealous they are not in the playoffs...

...don't remember anything else really signficant.

If they were smart, they'd play a game or two in Hamilton. Take some game where they don't draw flies (like a Calgary or Columbus, or the like) and play in Hamilton.

They're also talking about at least three preseason games in Rochester and a few in Canada.
