Hurricanes Melrose's sleeper pick of the playoffs
The Carolina crowd just given *daps* by Linda Cohn and Melrose on SportsCenter for how underrated and loud it is.

Maybe it's not going HORRIBLE since it is only the upper deck they are selling for... http://cdn.nhl.com/hurricanes/images/upload/2009/04/arena_map_041409.jpg
maybe they just want to try to get some people who normally wouldn't be able to go to these games addicted to it or something.
but probably just not selling well or something.

I am hoping that all you know that Backyard Bistro opened up in the old Damons yesterday. Should be a packed house for each away game and for those hard to come by playoff home games. I am sure you all remember where it's at. Was fun all during the 06 season. See you there today at 730! 4/15/2009 1:44:03 AM |

hey, random question, but does anyone know of any sports bars near preston in cary?
I play in an adult basketball league, and our 2nd round playoff game is tonight at 7:00 at the YMCA in cary which is kind of near preston. off cary parkway and high house. We are thinking about getting together to watch the canes game after our game is over with. We wanted to try to find a place close to the ymca that would have the game on tv so we could watch while we ate. I'm not familiar with that side of cary really. Does anyone know any sports bars or places with tv's in that area?
Thanks 4/15/2009 9:12:51 AM |

daz84 All American 2258 Posts user info edit post |
^^sunset grille is on harrison right? we were trying to find somewhere really close to the ymca in cary because everyone is coming from different areas.. but if everyone else on the team backs out, then we can go anywhere..
rudino's is close, i know theres one next to the bunkeys on high house, they have tvs? 4/15/2009 9:58:51 AM |

^^yup it worked. Sweet, 50$ for two playoff games. I'll take it.
I e-mailed them earlier and they said they had to open more since it sold so fast.

GAMEEEEEE DAY
and also, fuck FSN but credit to them for replying in less than 24 hours:
Quote : | "Thank you for taking the time to write. We understand your frustration with this situation and understand that you would rather see the Hurricanes in HD than receive an explanation back from FOX Sports Carolinas. However, several factors play into whether a game can be televised in HD, including the availability of an HD production truck from our truck vendors and the availability of HD transmission space from FSN’s national facility. Unfortunately, with FSN regional networks across the country televising the NHL playoffs and NBA and MLB regular-season games, we are not able to produce the Hurricanes’ playoff series in HD.
We increased our HD schedule from the 2007-08 NHL season to the 2008-09 NHL season and are working towards producing a full HD schedule in coming years. Again, we apologize for this inconvenience and hope that you enjoy watching John Forslund and Tripp Tracy call the Hurricanes series against the Devils.
Thank you." |

Thats such a cop out response from FSN. In realize that the number of HD production trucks is still not where it needs to be, but cmon...no reason FSN shouldnt have had them reserved months ago to send out to whichever teams made the playoffs. I also like "coming years"...not next year, but "coming years". I wonder, how many pro teams have won championships in the past 10 years and still dont have all of their games on TV?
Tonights game is listed once on my Dish guide, on channel 475. Is this the FS-Carolinas broadcast? It doesnt indicate either way, and dont want to tune in at 730 to find out its not, and Im blacked out. 4/15/2009 1:02:17 PM |
