one of the MAJOR and HUGE upgrades that gets forgotten is the insanely nicer scoreboard (which is actually closer to the obstructed seats). what the coliseum has now is a joke!! its like watching mario brothers on nintendo; the big screen at barclays is beautiful; and ive spoken to people who find themselves watching the screen (barclays/msg) more than the actual ice/court.

are they in obstructed seats?

kidding, new building should be a little odd but fine, unless someone goes and buys an obstructed view seat and decides to complain about it

Agreed. He will go somewhere but it wont be the Isles.
He clearly wants no part of Winnepeg anymore but I think league GM's see the tough position that the Jets are in having to deal him. They most likely wont get a return that he would warrant.
Rumors of him coming to the Isles are pure nonsense.

!. the Isles current scoreboard is not that bad and is not that old. Cost a fortune when they had it built.
2. I have been to barclays for a nets game and I would rather look at the board than the Nets.
3. The scoreboard being on the blue line is absolutely absurd and they better address it this summer. It has to be moved...

Another player Snow has been trying for is Saad from CHI

If the Isles did acquire him then ill eat my words...but I think the odds of that happening are zip.
The Isles would have to move bodies because we have no draft picks this year before the 3rd round. Sorry, but Winnepeg isnt taking Bailey and Strait for Kane.

just hearing lots of chatter about Garth making calls. Kane healthy scratch. I think he makes a move. I know they do not like JT not having a guy on his wing who can score all those dirty goals u guys hate so much.

All i care about is what goes on on the ice, what im seeing on the ice. If I've got to crimp my neck a bit to see the scoreboard when i actually do look up at it, so be it.

Kane's value is diminishing by the day. Especially as a healthy scratch. If you don't think a Reinhardt, Bailly, Dal Colle call would get it done you are mistaken.

What if u heard the isles were in on Kane but didn't have enough to give compared to the other team???

Strait has no value, Bailey has increased his, regardless of what we think about him.... He may float around the ice, but he has accumulated points playing on 1st line *showcased* cough, cough...

in all honesty- it makes no difference to me.

id rather have a non-centered scoreboard that looks like this:

as opposed to a perfectly center scoreboard where i cant see the puck:

That's the thing though...you can't see what's going on on the ice
