Comments on: Would starting weeknight Thrashers games 30 minutes later really make a difference?

7:30 is better.
Better yet, drop ticket prices by $10 (except for the $10 tickets) and get the parking price down too…most people are not making as much as they did just a couple of years ago

I have no idea which start time is better for the club. However, 7:30 is better for me. I work in Duluth and don’t get out until 6PM. When I have tickets for a weekday game, it is much more comfortable to have that extra half hour to get to the arena and get a bite to eat. It’s nice to be done chewing before the game starts, so I can get a little more into it. That said, I go to weekend games more often anyway. Typically, I have free tickets if attending on a weeknight.

RH said: “The more this team wins consistently…and wins consistently at home…the less and less it’ll matter what time the puck drops.”

Yep.

I voted for 7:30.

Zach Bogosian played 4 seconds shy of twenty-eight minutes (27:56). Amazing. Kane, Armstrong, and Reasoner were a +2. Guess who was a -1? Yep, Kozlov, Little, and White.

The Center Ice Replay is now just over 5 minutes into the 3rd period. Channel # 773 on Comcast.

We’ve lost some we should have won in the past few weeks, and now we finally won one we should have lost. I’ll take a W anyway we can get it.

Well, it’s painfully apparent that we’ve been completely dense and obtuse in our decision to start games at the silly hour of 7 pm sharp!

From now on, because of the overwhelming support of later start times, ALL Thrashers games will from now on and forevermore begin promptly at 5 pm sharp no matter what day of the week it is!!

Hey, anyone remember the last goal scored by a Thrasher FORWARD in regulation time? It was Bogosian, Kubina, and Schubert vs. the Isles and Enstrom and Hainsey today. http://www.nhl.com/ice/boxscore.htm?id=2009020238

Yes indeed LAC!! We finally were the beneficiaries of some dumb monkey puck luck!!

Woo hoo! Way to go Thrashers! Finally rewarded for their late-game balls-to-the-wall heart and stick-to-it-ive-ness!

Mr. Tiller, ’twas a grand pleasure the likes of which defy description to finally meet the Divine Mrs. T! The pleasure was unmistakably ours.

See you on Friday the 13th!!

Nice come from behind win. The Center Ice Replay is on Comcast Channel #773. Don’t watch it until the 3rd period starts.
