Which lot? Green lot right in front of the practice arena? You'll be fine. Prob get heckled a lil from the distance but nothing out of the ordinary. Not many people really tailgate anyway as it's right downtown.... most everyone is in the bars prior to puck drop.

Hope this helps!

I don't know. Check NJTransit, I believe you can take a train from Philly to Newark, but it does require changing trains.

Yeah, I've had some experience train riding into Jersey, not sure what the situation near the Prudential is like. Non-issue, tickets are just a shade more expensive than I thought. Gotta keep the budget

Take a train into Trenton and transfer onto NE Corridor Line. Takes you right to Newark Penn. 5 min walk to the arena.. if that.

Wow, these refs need to get a clue. Bad calls both ways.

You'll be fine, just the usual heckling. Everyone's pretty civil about it, after the game, people may be really drunk and be bumholes, but by that time, you'll be with all your friends so you're good.

good first for both teams. For the Devils because they attacked and had a ton of good chances. Bryz was very good.

For the Flyers because they get out with a 1 zip lead and have a PP to start the 2nd.

whether its in favor of, or against the Devils.. this kind of officiating literally makes me not even want to watch. ITS NOT HOCKEY. its figure skating with a puck. such a shell of what it once was pre-lockout

that's the thing ...you can always tell the guys who've had a poopload of beer after the game is over.

just avoid them and you'll be fine.

The game hasn't even been close to getting out of control. There is no reason for them to be calling it this close. Horsecrap calls against both sides so far.

Even though we ended up with more shots I think overall the Flyers chances were of higher quality. Larsson didn't look great and I think he was benched (somebody correct me if I'm wrong). Parise is really flying out there which bodes well for us but on the other end JVR is really muscling his way through the zone. We need to be tougher on him or he'll cause havoc all game.

I'm not sure why the refs are calling everything. It's not like the 2 teams are playing chippy, or there were a ton of questionable hits in game 1.

I agree. I think they are calling it so close because other series have had a lot of dirty hitting (including the Flyers last series) but right now both teams are being respectful. Yeah, these teams have the history for rough play but right now you can really tell both teams are trying to play it clean. I wish they would let them play because I sure don't want to see 20 minutes of power plays per game.

Parise should be with Zajac and Zubrus. That gives us at least one line that can forecheck really hard. Parise can get past the Dman.. and Zubrus can work the boards. Zajac knows how to best work between them and is also really good on the boards.

Sykora is useless next to Zajac and Zubrus.

In my opinion I think the Parise-Elias-Clarkson line is doing fine. They are creating. We need anybody to step up to move Skyora down.

If the Devils can hold this energy all the time, they would be unbeatable. Just flying and working all over the ice.
