Actually pretty damn cool... seriously considering it.

Interesting idea but I can't see myself giving any money to the league/team/players in any way right now.

Yeah, I mean it's cool but it just feels like something been a desperate plea to not lose fans and a total money grab. I can't decide which way it leans more. I'm really curious as to whether any of the money made will go towards the arena fund or if it'll just go into Katz' pocket.

At that price they are probably making very little money off of it, but for me it's just the idea of showing support...

Yeah see that's why I didn't go into a full blown rant on the money grab aspect.

At $299 I don't see how they could make much money. But yea, I get the support thing.

about the free agent stuff. id love to see mdz go to edmonton even as a rangers fan. we could get some picks for a guy we dont really need and as a mdz fan id love to see him with the oilers(who i also like a lot). i think hed do well there with not so much crowd for defensive ice time. then theyd have two puck moving defesemen which i think would be nice as they definantly are going to have more than one good scoring line.
also if redden counts towards the cap the nyr might as well be playing him in the nhl.

Where are they playing now?

Edmonton Oilers - players/stats/

There's been a lot of traction around the idea of trading for Bouwmeester and Frieddman just mentioned it in 30 thoughts too..
