    I believe the rock has sponsored Stampede so its fair game I would say.

    for the more discerning reader, winning 2 is generally pretty straight forward.  Winning 2-0 is a little bit trickier.  In most cases though, I would say a scoreline of 2 to 0 since you have included 2 figures.  The tricky part comes in when you include the words “Thunder” and “win”.

    might be room for a tie but it will probably be two W’s for qtown.  You never know though.  A goalie can have a blinder and the other goalie could have a meltdown.  I’d like a little more parity in the league instead of just a two horse race.

    The devils winning both games on home ice is hardly out on a limb Vince.

    as it says, we will win 2.  Out on a limb was sarcasm.  Is there a sarcasm emoticon?  (see what I did there, I was being sarcastic) <img decoding=” title=”Wink” />

    Unless something shocking happens in our 2 home rounds, the games in Queenstown will be the decider.  Unless they take both games, that tie against swarm will hurt them.  Even without it, I think our goal differential would be key.  They know how big those two games are though.  They will be ready.

    I’m going to step out onto a limb and say devils win 2.  Scores are hard to predict since its determined by what teams show on the day.

    Who was in goal for that pile of fun? Pretty good effort to stop 24 shots, that many of them short handed.

    swarm outshot us 24 to 5 in the third period.  We spent much of the 3rd in the box.  They had just under 6 mins of 5 on 3.  Lost count of the 5 on 4.  Fun period as far as action.  We got to work on the pk!  Would rather have not played short handed though.

    1st Period went to Swarm – both where the game was played, and shots on
    2nd Period – Devils took their opportunities – and scored in all of them – clinical – Swarm had lots of pens in 2nd
    3rd Period – Devils again outplayed Swarm – and finished well

    Despite that canterbury is technically the enemy and their goalie Vince once touched me in a way that made me feel uncomfortable, I actually quite like the Devils, and I’m glad they’re getting the wins they deserve.

    You never used the safe word so how should I have known?

    I’ll explain this one Kyle so you can avoid the banging your head against the wall.

    Devils stomp the Swarm 2-0 means they will win 2 games to the Swarm’s 0 by scorelines that could be defined as a “stomp”.  I’ll settle for 2 close wins though!

    should be start a “suggestions to increase the number of volunteers our organization can get and why we might not get as many as we would like” thread and let the round 6 red devils/stampede thread fade into obscurity?

    why does the rink require half?  How about we pay them the $300 per hour ice hire and they can keep vending sales.  That’s how nzihl works.  Why would it be different for IB’s vs Aus.  Plus that game would be an awesome way to get kids caring about competing for an IB’s spot in the future.  Can’t put a price on that.

    Because (at least in the instance of the upcoming NZ/Aus tests), the rink is taking care of the marketing etc costs.

    Unlike a team practice, the ice isn’t the only thing they’re providing.

    One would assume nzihf would do the marketing and the rink only supplies however many people they think they need for vendor services.  Still only one zamboni guy.
