All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Have you guys noticed how hard the NHL has been trying to sell the sport lately?

In every game you'll hear references to other sports during play by play.. the other day I even heard a VS. announcer describe two players as "fencing it out" with their sticks. "False start" is another term used at the faceoffs, 3 goals has been referred to as a "Field Goal" and there are just so many more I can't think of at the moment.
Have you guys picked up on any?

I've noticed that ESPN is paying more attention to hockey. They show highlights (sometimes), there is usually at least one play in the top ten, Barry Melrose was a guest on PTI yesterday. Seems like they are giving a half ass attempt to recognize the sport.

I don't think talking about 'going to the hoop' and 'false start' are them trying to sell the game as much as it is just a reflection of their little pea-brains.

Yet Bettman wants to stop NHLers from playing the Olympics.... What a joke!

From what I understand, ESPN has a new owner who likes hockey. The previous owner hated it which was why their contract talks turned sour back in the day. I think we'll see hockey back on the E S P N in 5 years.
