the de-slugging is cool as long as they dont change the 2007 banners. nothing sucks more then when a team changes the banners of pasts success to the current logos. you keep those banners as it.



Agreed. I also submitted a suggestion that they put the original banners from 96-97 and 98-99 back up, not the replacements they put up in 08 or whatever. They kept the appropriate logo on those banners...but replaced them. What the hell were they thinking replacing an original banner?

It's something that's bothered me since they did it.


last i knew, all the old pre-HSBC arena banners are replicas. all the old original blue and gold retired numbers and championship banners are all replicas. the original banners were lost after taken down after the last game in the aud, and last i knew, they hadnt been found.


Yes, I know that. Nothing you can do about that...but they did make them exact replicas, so those who didn't actually know they'd been lost wouldn't know the difference.

What I'm talking about is the banners won after HSBC was open - the Conference Champions in 99 in Division Champions in 97.

These were the original banners: http://img856.imageshack.us/i/dsc00852.jpg/
This image shows the banners they were replaced with sometime during the Golisano era: http://img269.imageshack.us/i/img0041custom.jpg/


yep! do you have any pre-change pictures of the banners? i wanna see how they changed them..


See the images I posted above...first one is the original banners, second one has the changed ones.

Unless you mean the Aud banners. In which case, here's a photo I found of the Aud: http://cdn-2-service.phanfare.com/image ... 4ba17a52_1

Compare that to the second photo above and they appear to be exact replicas.


lol, how did i miss that?!

yeah, bring back those banners. i like them.

Watching the game, it sounds like they are playing Rick Jeanneret's call of the goal during the replay for the fans at the arena...I like that a lot.

david bowies "heros" would make an awesome intro song, if edited. absolutely AWESOME intro for nhl 99.


That intro gave me goosebumps man.


thats the intro i like. the slow mo shots of the good times. seeing the huge grin on drapers face, the saku koivu celebration... that would be my ideal pre-game intro video.

anyone can play "bulls on parade" and show hits and fights (awesome song by the way) but i want the more sentimental intro. but thats just me.


I'm with you 100% on that one. Used to listen to the intro every time i booted that game up.
