puck7x Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 Time for some revenge after our loss vs the Amerks last week? We never had a chance in that game after going down 4-0 early, hopefully tonight turns out better for the dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puck7x Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 Its looking less and less likely that the dogs will make the AHL playoffs, not impossible, just not likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderbutt Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 I saw the game length was 2:34, and that the three games before this one all have been around 2:30. Is that the normal length for an AHL game? Just a detail I haven't thought about. By the way, is there any difference in length compared to an NHL game?

Fanpuck33_ Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 No it's about the same as the NHL. Games would be shorter if there weren't TV timeouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giupietrantonio Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 Hi, i just wanted to know which of the two team played better. I saw on the stats that Hamilton took 38 shots and Rochester took 29 which is still a high number of shots, and was wondering if Hamilton played good and just blew it at the end or were trying hard for the whole game. Thanks for a response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for a response. Sorry, cant help you here. The game was on the radio, so I really couldnt say which team played better (and I also didnt listen to tonights game, lol). Lately Hamilton has been playing better, and either playing as well as the other team, or outplaying them, but the Dogs have been losing because of bad luck, and bad goaltending (Ellis) , at least thats my opinion... To Answer Thunderbutt: Yes, like Fanpuck said NHL/AHL games last on average 2 and 1/2 hours. For the NHL each period has 3 commercial breaks, each break is 90 seconds (3 ads of 30 seconds each), and intermissions of 15 minutes long (it might be 17... I forget). And for the record, I prefer ad breaks then ad-filled hockey jerseys. But maybe thats because its what I grew up with, its what I'm used to. I like having breaks to grab something to eat, or goto the washroom (But not in the playoffs, thats bad luck!) plus it gives me a chance to think about the last few minutes of play, and think about how well the team is playing.

Fanpuck33_ Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 I agree TV timeouts are better than uniform ads. What I wish all sports would do is be like soccer, where there are no commericals, just small ads that pop up underneath the score box on the screen during the play.

Well, those are in soccer for a good reason, soccer is played in 2 non-stop 45 minute halfs. Hockey/Basketball/Football have many stoppages in play. Removing the breaks from the game would fatigue the players. Like I said, personally I like the breaks. If gives me a minute to think about things, like the habs chances in the game, and who is playing well. Sure I could use the intermission for that, but I like both. I dont think the stoppages in play kill any momentum a team has gained, teams are adapted to the stoppages now. If a pane of glass breaks though, thats a different story... 5-10 minute breaks are not fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habsfan21 Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 I kinda like commercial breaks too....get some water, a snack....washroom, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
