Anyone else find it interesting that Paluch was back for the Ice Jam?

Yes - though I guess that's obvious since I included a couple of pics of him. This isn't his ADM region, but he could be in town for the Lester Patrick Award.

I hope they give away the replicas of the banners again like the last 2 times. Sweet memorabilia.

yeah, they were AND they were the awesome maroon and gold banners we used to have until they changed them all and hung up a bunch of garbage looking banners that look straight out of walmart and ARE NOT maroon and gold.:rolleyes: i was so ticked off they took those other ones down. i'd like to know who's brilliant idea it was to change from something great to look at to poorly designed cheap looking banners.............do you know how i REALLY feel about these new banners? ;)

You are crazy. The new banners look fantastic. Old ones were made with yellow like our old helmets and jerseys prior to the summer 2000 logo redesign (and freaky slanty font as well) and consolidation of all sports uniforms to the proper colors. Now they have real gold in them like our uniforms. They look classy to me and fit more in line with the building now that they painted some of the tunnels maroon (done last year along with the new scoreboards). All in all I think Conte has looked exponentially better since the new banners/paint/scoreboard refurbs done last offseason.

I concur, the new banners are much better. The fact that they don't use the Helvetica font is in itself a major improvement.

good afternoon all. Congrats on your banner raising tonight. Should be a very good time for all to watch.

After that I'm looking forward to watching a very competitive game between you guys and MC. At least it's back to competitive hockey between us now. Best of luck and enjoy the game!

Hard fought victory. Merrimack is definitely a tough team - tomorrow night will be a big test. The defense made way too many mistakes - although I was very impressed by Patch Alber in particular. The kid never gives up on a single play. Kevin Hayes also made that third goal happen entirely with his effort. You can't really blame Cannata too much; he stood on his head most of the game. Looking forward to tomorrow night for sure.

P.S. Bigos is BIG!

Atkinson's 2nd goal was a thing of beauty. Backhand, no less. I felt this was a lucky win; that 3rd goal was pretty nuts.

Thank you very much for posting the video of the pre-game ceremony! For those of us far away and unable to get a TV feed, we thank you.

One question: what was the piece of music that accompanied the video we saw on the scoreboard?
